Default F2 TS TG back at Lip Ship....

Wonder what the deal is? Boat was sold less than a year ago with ZUls. Maybe the power went bad but that is no reason to get rid of the boat.

Plus what do you guys think about the price? I'd maybe be a player in the $160k range

Tom A. bought the boat and made the conversion into a pleasure cockpit. he also put the Zul's in it w/ boxes and sportmasters, then sold it without power to a guy who had Phil re-rig it with 525EFI's. i guess it is for sale again..... as it is one of the sister boats to mine, i know a few things about it. although Phil knows this boat inside and out. he has spent many hours dialing it in. it would be a fun boat to own!!

Brett Furshman ran that boat in F2 SBI a few years ago. I also spent many a day running the boat in Miami w/ Brett. Brett and Scott Mander barrel rolled the boat too. I'd get a good surveyor to check it out before I bought it - BH

brian is correct. brett successfully campaigned the boat as Miccosukee Gaming. will lynch (HOTDUCK) also raced it as Lynch Mob, after brett. will traded it in to phil on his awesome gladiator.

no doubt that the boat has been run hard and even took a spill or two, but everything aside, it is a fast boat that has a ton of R&D hours invested in it. it would make a great no-frills poker run boat!!!! then again, i may be a bit biased when it comes to F2 Carbon Fiber T/S's.

Is it priced right for a F2? I thought it was a bit on the high side but I know little about Cigs resale

If it is 100% ok structure wise with the 525's that price is in line. Somebody should buy it , show up at a few rough water races and run F2. Man the fear of God would be on some faces. BH

There was absolutely nothing wrong with the boat when I traded it to Phil. I simply wanted to be in a canopy to race.

I actually delivered the boat to Tom A. It never even went from me to Lip-Ship before it went to Tom. There have been some changes made since I had it, most notably the extension boxes, engines and rear bolsters were added in the cockpit. If you are looking for a good poker run machine, this thing handles really well and will absolutely fly!

I say this about every boat that I have sold, but I really wish that I still had this one. Here are a few pictures of it taken just a few days before we took it to Tom. This is what it looks like with all of the race related decals removed.
