Thunder Factory Visit
 

We just got back from FL today. We went to the Miami show on Mon and then we visited the AT and Sonic factories on Tuesday.

We had a quick look at the boats in the molds and met some of the employees. Everyone was really nice.

Pat took us out for a ride in this 37. What a ride!!:D We went out in a 2002 37 with 496's in 8' to 10' swells. WOW!:D The boat rode and flew level, had an incredible tight turning radius, and ran about 75 mph with 5 people on board and over a half tank of fuel in both tanks. I can only imagine what the boat would be like with 500hp's or 525's. :D :D

AT is definitely on the list to be considered for the next boat.

Here's another pic ...

Damn, wish I had asked for a ride when I was there in November, I expect a full briefing from you Brian!

The ride was incredible. :D There was no bow rise when getting on plane, it flew and landed level, the turning radius was unbelievably sharp. And 75 mph with 496's on a 37 foot boat. What else is there to say.

That boats onthe preowned board of the thunder site for 150K.
