I'd say they said 16 instead of a 36'... Looks like a twin step bottom, maybe a gladiator??

"We were just going 50 and the boat flipped"...put down the taco dude, it does not happen that way. I say driver error, these idiots make a bad name for all performance boaters, they make the average land lubber think these are unsafe at any speed when in fact they are as safe as the tool driving it. I sure hope they investigate this, I say something does not add up here. Nice boat though, steps, staggers...nice set up, too bad it didn't come with a driver.
