Difference between Eagle SG and SGX (.20 size)

[RonaldThomas]

Hello, I purchased two outriggers. One is supposed to be an Eagle SG and the other is supposed to be an SGX but these appear to be identical. Anyone can tell me some dimensions of the SGX or have any idea how to tell them apart? Thanks I’m advance...

The easiest way to tell is the boom spread front to back. The Sgx is spaced further apart.

 

[RonaldThomas]

So you say the rear booms are spaced further apart than the fronts? Any measurements I can check?

He means the distance from the front boom to the rear boom is greater, the SGX would alow a larger fuel tank also.

If you don't have both in front of you how do you tell........what are the measurements ????

Which boat size are you wondering about ? In his case I was just letting him know the easiest way to tell between the 2 boats that he has if one is indeed a Sgx and one is a SG. I know some of the Sgx spreads but not all.

.20 sized boats

I have two boats that are identical, trying to find out which they are...

Have you tried contacting CMDI racing (Andy, Donna and John Brown)
I'm told email gets the best results

I have tried to contact Andy but no replies, hence my post here.

The 21 Sgx is around 5 5/8” center to center boom spread from front to back. Measure yours and let me know what they are. There are a couple of other things to check, you can post photos here and I may can help.

 

[RonaldThomas]

These both appear to be that same measurement. Anything else to look for to be sure? I heard the nose was different as well

 

[Brian Sorgente]

You shouldn't see much difference in the nose of an SG vs SGX. I believe the SGX has a slightly lower profile which could affect the look of the nose somewhat, but it is generally the same shape. The sponsons may be slightly narrower as well. Jeff is correct, the biggest difference to you'll see is the boom spacing front to back. You probably just have two SGX's if they are the wider spacing. In either case, both are great boats.
