I had my 66 year old Dad aboard, and two other guests. I could have trimmed the boat out more, and lifted the bow, but I did not want any major air. I towed 1600 miles roundtrip for the Chicago Poker Run. I didn't make the trip to stay on the trailer, but also did not make the trip to destroy anything. I never once touched the trim tabs. I kept the drives at exactly straight neutral. I normally run them trimmed up 3.5 ticks from neutral. I could not ask for more in a boat. I am even VERY happy with my stock/warrantied 496HO power package. Anyhow, I'm starting to hate threads like these lately. :( |

:D :evilb: :drink: :evilb: It was first badged as a Chief during the Chief attempt at partnering with Active (didn't work) I sold that boat to current owner who was to be a dealer When Chief screwed the pooch the boat was re badged as active thunder (was always and Active anyway) The boat is incredible and there is a reason that Pat is gearing thing up to a larger level The Active is a SUPER boat and i have driven both the 28 and 37 and would never ever be concerned about the handling It is amazing OL make a great boat as well i just have never driven one to comment on its handling By the way the new slogan for Chief is "You seen one you have seen them all " :evilb: :D Let Pat and crew explain why the single step works it is an interesting concept and makes good sence Damn that boat flies level Marc |

Re: active thunder vs. outerlimits
If i had a choice between the two it would be a Outerlimits. Much bigger boat, larger cabin.
