Hi,

After a few years waiting I now own one of 5 Activator 32's :) I visit Jeff at L.I. in July and
had the deal done the same day. Jeff Cropper is a great guy :)

Boat came to Sweden last week and we spend some time going thru the boat with some
service etc . Had her splashed sat. This boat is something else than any other boat I've
been on!!!

Mange, have fun with hull #4. I have hull #3 (Slim Shady), they are great boats.

Paradise, his boat should do nearly 100MPH.

SFOcean, you are right. Last sat we hit just over 98. This weekend we will have some more time in her.

So, what spec do your motor have? Love "Slim Shady", thats a very cool boat! With cabin!!

I really love the character of the JC Performance 532"!
It's very strong all the way and actually don't got any peak before 6200rpm. It's a true race engine. We had the coast guard talking to us after last weekends tests. People called them and was scared. Kid's crying etc..... :D

This 1095hp 572" engine is going in the Activator this winter.

SFOcean 09-01-2011 11:33 PM

"So, what spec do your motor have? Love "Slim Shady", thats a very cool boat! With cabin!!"

Mange,
The engine is a 555 BBC blown and intercooled. It is being completely redone and upgraded right now.

Thanks Titan!! On flat she is little tricky but with good new oil in the steering it will works just fine. But in rough she's a killer WOW. Flyes just straigt and loooong haha.

I really want to hear some more stories of your time with her.


Take care

Yes that JC motor is wicked. If I had the money I would keep it just because it's so mean and hardcore. Now the JC motor going to Finland and to a 29 Fountain, old race boat. It's going to be a rocket for sure....

Thanks Jim,

I'm a pig who fly straight most of the time haha.
I really love this boat. It's little tricky to handle on dead flat, but now I know. Fresh and a good brand oil in the steering. I love it in rough water, it's sick!!!

JC's 930hp engine was a very nice motor.

Now I going with a 572ci. Here We just have the engine in to make the measurement for the new Stainless Marine exhaust. I'm also going to build all the fuel and cooling system before I take the engine out again.

Inside. The red silicone connentions are for a crossover unit. A custom made noise reduction system :D
The crossover unit will be of aluminium, a inner and outer pipe with welded ends. Going to go with the kompressor
cooling water thru it. I have never done this kind before so we will see how it's coming out.

Had some carbon exhaust rings done. Custom made and layup directly on the transom to get the right curve. Made a template of cardboard to get the correct shape.
