22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

Pat,

How many of these did you produce?
I'd love to have one with an outboard as a second boat.

Brian, I am suprized you don't know those numbers :rolleyes: Really though I have never seen one myself do you have any pics??? I have never heard Pat say anyting about them. When did he build'em??

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banchee
 

22 Never new he built one and SYDWAYZ didnt either. :o

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

I knew they were produced, but I was never interested in such, so I never paid attention. I've got some old brochures with a picture, but I don't know much about them personally. They had the DDC/AVH hull, and were available with OB or IO power.

I created the thread to start an online repository for future use if needed by anyone.

I'd love to have one with an outboard for quick trips out to the local river that I'll be moving closer to. MS and I have lots of friends with ski/wakeboard boats. They either have lifts or can launch at the shady ramp not far from the house. The river is only a couple hundred feet wide in some spots, but I have taken Monsoon out there a couple times. I have to drive 30 miles down river to find a barely suitable ramp, and cruise 30 miles up the "road course" back to friends' houses. Its a fun trip though. People hear us coming for miles and just shake their heads when we rip by.

Brian,

I remember seeing the Banshee hull being laid up. I'd have to guess and say there was only one or two produced.

I saw the OB one at the factory when I was there. IIRC Pat said he built it to take the kids skiing, etc. I think they were making a an IO one at that time for a friend of his.

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

ok Pat spill the beans where are they how many and what happened to the molds?????? That is a cool little river rocket :cool: I want one!!!!! :evilb:

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

The boat ran like a raped ape!!! There were a few built. I think Big Al got one. Single Step hull just like the 37. I believe the molds went back to Harry Schull and then were licenced out to a bass boat company. Pat could chime in and tell more. The original Top deck had a forward "rumble seat" configuration....

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

When I picked up my boat at the factory in 2003 there was one there with am Pulse drive on it and was just being built. Pat said the thing would really run with that drive.
Other than that one have not seen one.

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

Pulse drive? cool, what was the power? I have heard rumors that Pat had used them( pulse drives) did he ever use it on the bigger boats?

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

NO...and dont ask me why...

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

This was stupid. Fun, but stupid..... :D

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

Here's the one we built for Harry.

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

why was it stupid? money? what? I would love to have one for the river up here where are they???? Did you do anything with the pulse drives???

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

It looks cool. It would be a great week night river rocket. :eek:

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

Brian you must be talking about the Mattaponi. Back in the late 80s i had a friend who kept his camper at rainbow acres and we used to go skiing on his Mastercraft. Ive been as far up as the walkerton bridge. I bet Monsoon does turn some heads winding thru there.

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

I want the one built for Harry Pulse drive and all!!!!! way cool :cool: :cool:

Re: 22' Active Thunder Banshee
 

Exactly. I have put in down at West Point, and run all the way north of the Walkerton Bridge. We have friends that live on the water in Walkerton. The river is so narrow that I have had to come off plane to turn around. Its more like a creek!

Last time out; 30 miles up the river... saw one PWC that day. Guess what:



He cut me off!! GO figure.

So where are they? Brian while you are down there see what you can dig up:cool:

I am not going to give up on this Pat do you know where they are? Brian while you are there get him drunk and find'em:evilb:

Clark said there may be one available in TX.

IO or OB? I want IO. there was a post on GEN look'n for you did you get it? OSO

I saw one around here a couple of years ago more than once...Let me dig and see if I can locate it...It was originally from here...

Pat has got to know where the one that he built for Harry with the Pulse dr is. So hows the weather down there?

Seems strange to click "Quick Reply" on a post that is 16 years old. I wish I would have seen this thread 10 years ago. I have an AT 22 ft Banshee sitting in my driveway in rural Indiana.. It was a fast, fun boat with a great hull. It is one of 2 (I believe) that was converted to a Pulse Drive surface drive which of course is no longer serviceable. It was powered by a Merc 350 MPI. A comment above regarding its speed used the term "raped ape" this was true. Another comment regarding the Pulse Drive stated "don't ask ." This is an appropriate comment also. It is currently in need of a total rehab including a Power/Drive solution. It would be a good project Boat.

What would you want money wise and do you have pictures?

The new green demo boat with roughly 20 hours can be bought for $109K. Contact me!
