How about just building a "Fat Boy Clone"? There are a lot of early guns out there for sale. Gut one out and build it just the way you want it with sixes this time. So what if it's not a "numbers matching" or "correct" restoration of the original. It would be yours.

It would be tough to convert to a stagger setup

I wonder if L.C. marine will deal on the one they have had for 6+years now ?

Yea, that would be a great way to do it, in theory....But the reality is, it'd cost you a sh!t load of money to do it, when you can just buy Fat Boy which I'm sure will be for sale here shortly with Cecil in prison.

No doubt that it would'nt be cheap. But neither will rebuilding or replacing everything that's worn out. Not saying that Fatboy is old and worn out but it ain't new either.
What's the story on this Cecil guy? Is he the current owner?

This thread got me thinking. Fat Boy has a storied past, lets start at the beginning.

Who was it built for? Was it raced? Was it used for some questionable purposes? Power history?

Spill it people, there's got to be a lot of information/stories out there. (We won't tell stecz we're talking about his lady)

Actually, there are 5 or 6 staggered TopGuns that were built.

FatBoy
Bill Procters Spider Boat
Frank Areces Race boat (Pollo Tropical)
Pure Pressure (In the keys)
The purple and green one @ Lake Cumberland Marine
NEXT (I'm not sure if it's a staggered boat)


I think that they were all built in 1992-94 time frame

Craig Barrie built it for a guy in Europe ( AB knows who ) and they went over there and raced it with him . It was a multi day type race ??? From what I remember it did well !

Isn't that the NEXT boat? Maybe I have the two of them confused. I know that Doug's boat is named Pure Adrenaline. One of those two are staggered.

how does the stagger affect the performance in a straight bottom 38 top gun?

They're faster with the same power

Thought only a few of the staggereds had factory pleasure cabins? Like 3 out of the 6?

ps- I have a call in to Sam/Senior Speedy for him to verify how many, the names & power packages & how they were set up then, now and will be in the future as well as where they have been, are currently at and will be in the future.

Updates to follow as soon as he finishes his home work, chores and paper route.

Stagger does two things. The drives being together reduces drag and gives you a bit of speed. Maybe a couple mph. The bigger one is balance. You now move to saddle tanks which allows you to control attitude and the engines in line move the center of gravity forward. The downside is that full-cabin stagger boats almost always are nose-heavy. You're limited to shorty cabins with little accessories- unless you like sticking the nose in on rougher days.

its really about the set up, i like the paint but i would really enjoy redoing this boat right and keeping it a long, long time. i know you would never get your money out of its but after your done, you would truley have something very special.

I had heard it was some type of offshore endurance race, had a couple extra fuel tanks installed at Cig? After that it spent 10? years in NE Ohio - a couple different owners. Not used a lot by either.
