Different hatch. Different steps. No rub rail. No deck rail. Different interior and instruments. Different paint. Different engines. Maybe a different deck (I can't tell for sure). Other than that, identical!
Very clean 04 for sure. Looks good!

so the only real difference is the steps everything else you listed can be changed by any buyer on any Cig? Maybe not the hatch. I would have to see the two hatches. Did they actually make a new mold for the deck?

Result was fresh, but I did not care for the angled vertical-esque paint stripes (like the AMG logo bars). Made the boat look shorter than it is. Color was understated and breathtaking in the sun!

I'm all for simple and elegant but the Ducati boat is extremely lackluster. They could have done a little more with it.
I like the AMG boat but I would feel like a doofus driving around in it with "AMG" on the side. There is something rapperesque about it. Remove that and you have yourself one hell of a machine.

I worked for a custom boat builder, one of the last engines we put in was a LS5 Corvette engine, we marinized the engine. No it was not 1000 HP but all of the components are available and yes A good friend of mine built a 1075 from scratch to merc specs cost him about $75k all in.
Nothing is impossible, and consider who we are talking about here, Cigarette and AMG either one could easily do it, Cigarette used to build there own motors! Hawk Racing Engines?!
Or maybe you didn't realize that.

if you do, then hawk would have been owned by cigarette and they would have been called cigarette racing engines.
capiche?

You have no clue what you are talking about. Do some research and then when you have a clue get back to me.
