Thanks Sydwayz
 
Brian I just want to take a moment to publicly thankyou. It was the homepage of Monsoon on a thread about side by side seats that started my interest in Active Thunder. Your input and knowledge about them was priceless. Then you allowed my wife and i to practically survey your boat while i was making a decision to build or not. If theres anybody here thinking about buying an AT Brians help can be invaluable. Your #1 in my book.

We do it for the love of the sport.

I've had people crawling all over the new 33 and spend as much time as they like going over the boat with them.

Pat builds one of the best hand-crafted boats in the industry today and we owners are proud to show them off.

So I second that. Kudos to Brian!

Never met an Active Thunder owner that doesn't love his boat and I'm sure I never will.

THANKS AGAIN BRIAN, DOESN'T IT SUCK TO HAVE TO TALK ABOUT BOATS ALL THE TIME, MY FRIENDS THINK I AM RETARDED BECAUSE WE HAVE SNOW AND ICE AND I STILL TALK ABOUT BOATING. MY WIFE JUST PUTS ON HER SELECTIVE HEARING. HAMMER

DON'T THINK I CAN MAKE IT ANY WHRE IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS DUE TO WORK :( THANKS FOR THE OFFER

Thanks Mark & Trent et all.

I'm not a sales guy by nature, and I really don't want to be. I am absolutely 250% behind a product or service when I am passionate about my experience with such. In my last position, I closed a $9M gov't deal in a 20 minute technical presentation, but again, its just being passionate about what you believe in. I didn't buy my Active Thunder new, and yet Pat has become good friend. I enjoy helping him and team promote the boats & brand.

That being said, I wish I sold Whipple Chargers, and that I had seen Rich coming ahead of time. Maybe even paint and outdrives too.
:evilb: :evilb: (Its a good thing we're friends.)

I couldn't agree any more with all of you. In fact, Brian's expertise goes far beyond his AT as he made himself available and gave me good advice that assisted in the sale of my Nordic. As he says, when you are passionate about something, you will always shine and Brian is a great example of this.

The fact that I am hanging around on the AT forum already tells me Brian (need to give Rich credit as well) has gotten me into trouble....although I am not so sure I will be thanking him if I end up blowing my budget on a 33 that I so badly want :)

Thanks again Brian...

By the boat you think you can't afford and you'll be happy.
Do the samething your wife did with you a dozen yrs ago.Take that chance and do it.Tell Lisa I'm sorry. :D
Just order the 33 so you can have it for the Richmond run.Don't worry we won't ask you to dance. :evilb:
YOU CAN OWN ONE OR CHASE ONE.Its time for you to own since you already been chasing one.

Yes, Todd. Mark pulled it up off an old post. I have the whole thing saved on my laptop as well.
