Default Swedish 27 stepped hulls
So i think a member Mange bought the 27 Activator molds then was making them over in Sweden. Then upgraded the hull bottom to the 30ft design, then havent seen anything since. Ive reached out to Mange and got nothing. Did they end up back in the USA or just lost now?

I believe Mange hasn't built a new Activator in Sweden since 2018/2019. He made a lot of changes to the running surface of the boats. A couple of the last 27s and the 28CPR race boat can be seen here in photos Mange posted on FB in 2018 and 2019.
Here's also his history of the Activator boats. I'm personally a huge fan of Mark Schnepf of Activator/Rage Powerboats.

Thanks for the info about Mange. I had no idea he had a head injury and had to stop his hobby. Hopefully the molds are safe.
