Well it is still not at my house yet  :rolleyes  soooo I will take that advise and decide. If I keep those speeds in mind and stay on a budget it could be fun. Looking for the look more than a race boat :good

Was pretty good advise wasn't it. "It's not winning or lossing, it's how you look playing the game."

From the advice so far, the plan would be build a boat that has the look but is really a poser.  Keep from getting ejected on my a$$ or worse. That keeps the cost down,  it's still an old ride. Hell I could jump out at 50 :rotflmao  :rotflmao

:cool You Nailed It's All About The Look :cool

For me it's an age thing. Done with going fast. Some boats are built to go, some for show.
