Jupiter Sunsation

Honestly an apples to oranges comparison AJ. I have been in both at speed for extended runs. The PP has an old style dash, looks like it was cut with a hole saw on a square box form. Sunsation is very rounded, modern. Interiors are damn near identical (cabin). PP seems to be very sure footed whereas the F4 runs a little loose at speed but I think only one PP ever broke 100 mph whereas all the F4's with the exception of Mental's cracked 100 so maybe the PP gets loose at 100 also.

PP needs to be staggered, lose some rough edges like the rub rail that looks like it came from a JC Whitney catalog and keep everything else old school cool! Deep cockpit, great seats and a huge cabin (with enclosed head) were definitely highlights!

Sunsation got a little carried away with the bling and some of the paint schemes but that was what was selling at the time (and what the customers wanted).

I don't think you can go wrong with any of those engine builders, not to mention a few others out there that do outstanding work.

Rhino, it would be interesting to know details about the work on the boat after sinking. Obviously, that's going to be a huge selling point. If Brad is familiar with the work/inspection on the hull/etc as well as the engines, I'm sure potential buyers would feel comfortable knowing they can ask Brad questions about the boat, too.

Just my $.02.
