In 2000 they converted from a straight hull to the step. Don't buy the straight hull, just get a Sonic if that's what you want. :D Also, around 2003 they went to a cabin liner, these reduced interior space slightly and added weight (almost 1,000 lbs.) GREAT BOATS though, Sydways and a few others can confirm/correct my info as needed.

I'll chip in here as well. Count me in as the third fella. I too am a Formula owner, '89 F311 and have gone down the path of looking at an AVH37 AT. Sweet boat. We took one with Pat out about 3 years ago and were sold. However we had to make a choice between a new home (log home) or upgrading the boat. Home won for now. AT is still high on our choice list and we will be revisiting Pat and AT in a few years. Solid ride, fast with lots of features.

Re: Questions about the 37 Active Thunder
 
I know there are 1999 models. I don't know if they were built earlier.

Pat bought the company from a guy in Illinois somewhere around the late '90s. He will be the one with the most info.

Major changes include of course the step. Some are stepped. Some are not. In 2003, a new top deck was designed. I have one of the first ones, (Monsoon). It makes for more headroom basically. Also, in 2002 you could get the "Millenium Cabin" which constitutes the full cabin liner. Some of the newer boats have been built without the cabin liner, in favor of some more custom interior cabin amenities.



dduck13 and Thunder Struck... when you are ready to talk more seriously; let me know. A new AT may be closer than you think.

Re: Questions about the 37 Active Thunder
 
I bought my first, then called, Thunder in 1993.

I built my first, now called, Active Thunder in 1994.

So the answer is anything tagged model year 1995 and newer is ours.

Seems like only yesterday.....

But the look on your face was priceless when, on Friday, you walked in and told me you were there to pickup a 25 and I was standing in an empty hull and told ya to come back Monday! :D

but I think I helped a little to get it done:eek: I thought I left on sunday???? whatever happened to that little cat mold that was there? I wanted to take that home with me so bad :( So did you ever hear anything about where that 25 went? I only saw it 2 or 3 times around here. I know that Sueter traded it for a 31 Volcity with all purple cockpit :eek:

Re: Questions about the 37 Active Thunder
 
We had #2 32 after Pat bought AT. We bought it right out of his backyard if I recall. I saw that boat for the first time since 97 last week end at my high and dry marina. Those 465HP's are still kicking even though the SOB that owns it sank half of it sometime earlier this year.
