Cougar 1991 US-1 38' 2009 For those of you who enjoy a full Restoration

His whole goal from 30 years of boating was the ultimate ROUGH water boat.
Thats why he built this,..........from the money invested it's no secrete he could have had a new serial number ,........instead he has a new Cougar for his intent. :sifone:


Jon

And Now he has a Great Rough water Boat, I Took a 38 Cougar with twin 500hp Merlin Diesels and Arneson Drives Into Government Cut while the tide was going out and the wind was blowing in, there was 10'-14' Swells right at the mouth of the cut, I would jump 2 and stick through the next, Jump 2 stick through the next all the while running 50+mph, it was a ball and the boat never let out a whimper. Great running boats.......

Amazing!!
That thing is beautiful.
The swim step is over the top. Personally, I would have opted for no step at all, but if you're going to do it... He did it right.
Great work!
