Bubble wrapped steering wheel? Is that like a grandma keeping the plastic on the nice furniture?! LOL

Glad to see ya pulled the trigger finally!

Haha ya its super clean! I might keep the bubble wrap on it. Don't want to leave any DNA behind :) be safe - wrap it up

Nice ride

Thnx glad I went AT. Super build quality. Love that 33, that's a bad b1tch.

Will have to meet up so I can go for a ride in that. Word on the street is them 25's are the real deal.

Are you sure that speedo goes high enough for that boat? lol

Congrats, enjoy the koolaid!!

thanks. definitely look forward to a nice summer. weather is starting to warm up in MI

Loole good. Congrats.

nice, bring on the tantrums

Tantrum takeover

Nice boat, and popular for a reason.

I think there may be more Tantrums than all other models. Nice ride.
I didn't see a boost guage.
Welcome, and enjoy.

the furthest gauge to the right:coolcowboy:

Welcome to the Cult. Nice ride, we need more pictures.

It's a Tantrum takeover! Most fun you can have with 25 feet!

Ok I see it now. So what power? Is this the one that has the big windshield?

Yeah Buddy, Tantrum Nation

Yep, thats it, going to remove the windshield for now and snap a few pictures once I get the darn thing off jackstands. Trailer bearing blew on the haul back. Axles in the shop getting fixed. Trailer brakes are being replaced as well as bearings, etc. Overall, Im very impressed!

wow, its easy to insight a cult riot.:evilb:

almost ready for the water :)

WOW is all i can say, got the axle together and dropped her in around 845pm last night, ran around til about 11. super impressed with handling and characteristics of this thing. plenty of power, just a slight touch of throttle we are gonnnnee. ran over some rollers no prob around 55mph, no sloppyness, nothing!

you know they are bad a** when a guy in a fountain at the ramp comes over and says "what kind of boat is that?" i repeat saying its a active thunder, he says "ughhh what kind?" lol

i think at that point my girl believed me when i say AT are the SICKNESS lol.

:eekdrop:

1st time out and runnin' at night! Glad all went well. Welcome to the Cult, enjoy the Kool Aid (its Addictive!):evilb:

stopped running when the sun came down, there were fireworks off the water near my home, so we just anchored, listened to some tunes and watched them. idled back in..water is too low to takke any chances, especially in the dark. a buddy of mine blew his prop last weekend on a submerged pilon! addictive for sure!! thanks

Looking forward to some sunset running this year. We kept our boat in a Hi-Dri facility for the last 11 years and had certain times that we had to be back to put the boat away or it woud sit out on the dock unprotected (I can't have that!). A garage is being built at our house this month so we are back to traveling and getting some work done that has been put off.

Looks great, have had many good times on my "little" 25......love my 2nd year of hi and dry storage:ernaehrung004:

does anyone have a graphic file for the 'active thunder' logo? would like to get some stickers made..thanx

Do you know what brand of ladder that is under your SP? I've been looking for one like that. My platform has the mounting hardware, I just wasnt sure if the ladders come in standard sizes or not...

hey, not sure the previous owner installed it i believe..ill shoot him over an email asking for ya

It's made by Windline, the 3 step telescoping model. Baja used them for years on their tubular platforms. I had Pat install one on my 33. I like em!

Pat didn't have that file anymore so i had my old setup scanned and made. I had mine made in metallic purple and pink. They can make it in any colors. Epic Color, Wisconsin company 262-252-4577. Send me your e-mail and I will send you pictures if you would like.

mgh love the boat. IMO the windscreen needs to go though

or at least shortened... but its easy for us to make decisions about your boat! :p enjoy!

I agree with you guys. It will have to wait until next season though. Would like a molded clear windscreen. This one is deff big but in all honesty around 80mph it helps tucking under to keep my eyes from watering! Its screwed into dash so I'd have to fill the holes, maybe with 3m 4200? Not sure... But I'm feeling it would require some time. Thanks for the compliments, have got a few "nice boat" comments on the water...feels good to buy a very well put together boat. Couldn't be happier...well maybe a 32 AT ....

I just had four 2'' x 1.5'' x 1.5'' Aluminum mounting blocks made for my tantrum to mount "wind flaps" from finny's. The windflaps are 8'' by 18'' long and have mounting holes near the center. The mounting blocks are threaded for the windflaps and for a bolt to be mounted on the lip just above the dashboard on both sides of the boat. I will post pictures once I get them powdercoated and installed...

Do you boat on lk st clr? If so when u get your wind screens on, would like to meet up and check em out.

Shooting up to St Clair for Fri night then be back down in moot all weekend. You gonna be out?

Just gettin in from browns right now. Some1 had a nice 35 fountain w checker flag grahpix. Can't make sat, so looks like 2mro or sunday for me. Ill let ya know
