I can't wait until Pat turns Active Thunder Boats over to a "Forum Member Owned Company" !!! :drink:
|
Sell shares like Reggie did, that turned out well :party-smiley-004:
|
Are any other boat company owners active on the forums?

I could have sworn AT was a fairly high end boat , it sure isn't low end . looking on powerboatlistings there is a 38 cig top gun with twin 525's and xr drives . for top speed it says 75 . If I'm not mistaking a 37 AT with the same power will run over 90 . So if that is all true Pat and the guys at AT must be doing something right .
look at velocity boats how fast they run with small power but there flat pad is twice as wide maybe more then A.T mike |

you also have to remember that the 37 has a wide flat pad from the single step to the transom where as a cigarette is a V all the way from bow to stern . the pad give's a flat surface for the boat to run on vs running on a straight V.

The dialed in 37 AT's run around 86-88mph. I think a couple have touched 90. The 38 TS Guns run 84-86mph. |

Stealin' Thunder ran 90 and change with Herrings. A few others have seen similar. I want to say Frank had the silver/yellow/burgundy one up to 91 at one point. It's not an everyday speed on every boat, but it can be tuned to do so. Mike's boat should run a consistent 85+ depending on conditions. Pushing 90 with a fully decked out cabin including AC with 525EFI/XRs is nothing to sneeze at. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What's with all the skepticism and drama in this joint lately? Aren't we all in this because we enjoy it? |
