No numbers yet i need to get used to the set up on the boat.

I would guess mid to high 70's at best.

Its a family boat.

its only got 24 pitch 4 blades on too.

Lucky I know its apples to oranges but what size props do you run on G.A.

Hey 30 I was down in Saybrook today and spotted your new ride. Hope you don't mind but I had to drive and and see it in person. VERY nice boat, that hull is super clean and what a trick setup for those motors. That thing looks like a blast. Maybe one of these days I'll get my little 20 down there on the river. Enjoy the new boat!

Default Nice boat!

Congrats! That is really nice.

Three things I really like: Sutphen+Big Outboards+FOUR Bolsters = Really Nice.

Enjoy!

Thanks Guys I appreciate the kind words

I am glad you got to see it.

Its even better the more time you spend around it.
Just a great all around boat. I am sure theres plenty faster, many sleeker etc etc. but for all around use I think this is a killer boat and thats what I needed.

If it only had a shower in it now.LOL


The elegante must be a great all around sutphen too.

I looked at it myslef before I bought this boat.

I figured the most time I spend on my boat is in the cockpit so thats what I looked for in a boat.

Mike if your here in CT you should look into joining us in the CPBA check it out in the north east section on this site.

If you ever want to go for a ride let me know. I am always looking for a good excuse to take the sutphen out.

Jeff the boat looked great out infront of the pavillion sunday. It looked even better when you smashed the throttles down!

man I guess alot of people were there sunday. funny I didnt see anyone on shore.

I usually hang out with my nephews down near the flat rock where its quiet.

I'm too old for that pavillion stuff these days.LOL

Id just get myself in trouble.

The 26 rum runner was looking good out there too. Hull looks great and it sounded good when it fired up.

OK guys what do you think Nefarious or mayhem for the name on the boat.

Both have allot of meaning to me, but I am having trouble deciding
