What's up with the finish on the Staying Alive boat? It looks flat, almost like a vinyl wrap.

Phantom boat.. Headed to Texas..

Incredible boat.. Love the subtleness of it, no glaring in your face colors and graphics...DSCN1006.jpg

Strange, the board is changing the upload order around on me...

[Madpoodle]

And it looks like I killed another camera, shots fuzzy.. Crap...

[Madpoodle]

That would be the third coolpix in a year...

6 days until we are there!

[Madpoodle]

Busy day today, had some issues to deal with in our booth so I didn't get out as much as I would have liked.. A few pics from EARLY in the day, snuck back in and got a few more later.. Merc is hiding something under wraps in a couple booths, looks like a modified Bravo hanging out the bottom. Curious to see what it is tomorrow..

Weird, not one Fountain or Donzi

Cummins powered, nice drives!

Cigarette hath thrown down with that 5 outboard monster. DAYUM.

And as much as I LOVE the 38 TG, and the paint the red+white one is wearing, why put 90mph on it....? The GTM sled looks really nice too. Waiting on more. Impatiently as always.

[Madpoodle]

They claim it runs 90 with 525's...


Midnight did the 5 engine thing a few years ago, we know how that worked out for them

Tribute to the original 90MPH Cig's from back in the day. I love it!

I think there were like 5 of them made back in the early 90's.

The Top Gun 90 MPH not only sounds like something straight out of Miami Vice but looks like it, too.

The Top Gun 90 MPH is being built by the Cigarette Racing Team, a Miami boat company. The Top Gun, company officials claim, is the first production boat capable of cruising at 90 mph. The boat is powered by a pair of 825-horsepower aluminum engines.

The 38-foot Top Gun 90 MPH seats six, has a fully cushioned sundeck race hatch and a host of standard amenities above deck.

Below deck, the Top Gun 90 MPH features a leather interior, icebox, sink, freshwater tank and bathroom.

''She's as sleek as a jet fighter's wing,'' said Cigarette president Robert G. Gowens. Each Top Gun 90 MPH is made to order and comes with a guarantee that the boat will exceed 90 mph. Buyers also are invited to an all-expense paid weekend at the factory for a two-day course in operating a high-speed, high-performance speedboat. The course is supervised by Craig Barrie, a world-class driver and throttleman on the offshore racing circuit.

Interested? For a mere $350,000 you can have the fastest boat in the neighborhood.
