Always good customer service from them.

I like the Sunsation, and I would also take a Corvette over a Masarati.
That was 8:30 in Michigan....I can't believe he answered the phone!

Nor-Tech is a true custom builder. The 43V will be bigger, heavier, have a softer ride, and be more luxurious than the F-4. Sunsation is a semi-custom builder. The F-4 will be faster on the same power, be a bit more nimble, and will be geared towards all out performance with some nice custom touches. If it was my decision to make, I would ask myself how I intend to use the boat the majority of the time. If I am a Poker Runner, I am probably leaning F-4. If I am more of a cruiser, overnighter, with the occasionl Poker Run thrown in I am probably going Nor-Tech. I wish I had the coin to have your dilemma! Not sure you can go wrong either way.

Going twins this time over tripps? I would have been out on Jassby's 43 a few years back had I made the trip to Diamondhead. Not sure I would have wanted to be next to him up front though in those side by side bolsters. He has a hard time keeping his pants up on a boat.

Of course he's going to answer..he's on his phone, and has bought a boat from him..no different than me calling Sobo...

My deal, is drive both, then make a decision, look at all aspects, resale, ride, acceleration, top end, comfort, structural integrity, wiring, seat material, stitching, plumbing to and incl. sea strainers, ease of getting to maint. items,..list goes on. Good Luck. Jeff

725's/Indys would be a great combo in a 43!
