Are you absolutely positive about that? I've always been told, and read many times that the Launch hull below the waterline was basically the same up until 2004. The exception being that they rounded off the back on the Launch. There's a guy on my lake with an 04 Launch and sitting in the water looking at it coming back to get me I could swear it was a saltare...Quote:

You wouldn't find me anywhere near $8,000 for that thing... Heck, I wouldn't even want to deal with those issues.
thats not a gash thats a bash, Check out these 2

No I'm not 100% sure. But I think that the angle of slope in the stern from the skegs back is more steep on the Launch, and more flat on the Saltare. I was under a Launch a bunch back in the day, but that was before my Saltare so I couldn't compare.Quote:

The one is Dickson TN is about 1.5 hours away from me. If you get real serious I can go check it out for you.
The one in Richmond is sold, I looked at it and within 3 hours of leaving he called and said someone got it.Quote:

Well I got the call last night, the salt is gone. Curious to what he got for it.
That one in Dixon is 11 hours away from me but I sure would love to get an honest opinion on it!Quote:

Yeah I'm not too heartbroken on this one, I wasn't in love but I did like it. I was having a hard time convincing the other half anyway. They want a water ready boat , not understanding that's going to cost. I aappreciate everyone helping out though! Keepthe posts going on boats available. I do an allsearch of cCraigslist but seems it's nit giving me all.Quote:
