H20,

I second everything Jassman said. Man Jeff I do not know you could speak so intelligently. Must mean you did not have and crowns last evening... Kevin, seriously, just order the thunder be done with it, we will see what I can do about pushing back the thunder run or maybe we just set up another. I know it is the right decesion, and I would notwant you to get all upset when tbikini is in my thunder in her red, and blue latezx, oh yeah and I forget red. Come on Kevin, join the family.

Yo, what's up? Just some information to facilitate your decision H2O. We boat with friends of ours who just purchased a 2001 382 Fastech with 500 EFI's. We have a '99 Baja Outlaw with 454 Mags that smokes his arse. His top end freshwater speed is 72-73 mph (GPS). Yeah, that's it! His ammenities and cabin are nice; but, at that speed he can keep it. Anyway, we all know you'll make the right decision.

Okay guys....Go check out the sermon I got on the Formula board. Plexus all around and bolts every 18 inches...Fiberglass can't reach all these places....blah blah blah etc. Now what am I supposed to think. Why doesn't someone just use plexus, fiberglass and bolts, then we'll know the boat won't fly apart no matter what Seriously though, we are much easier on our boats than most so I don't think that having the "come aparts" is a big issue. (As Pat and Steve know, there is no way I would have been out in that "mild" stuff we went out in for our demo ride) However...having the interior of our boat be perfect is a big issue for me. Ok Ok...I'm as anal as some of you. I figure if my AT is built as tough as everybody says it is, then the interior should prove it too! If I look inside and see areas that are a little sloppy then I wonder about the rest of the boat. (Which is why a new Powerquest is out of the question!) This is not to say that I think AT is sloppy inside!!!!!! It definitely is not!!! I pointed a few things out to Steve when we were in one of the boats and he agreed that it was something that should be fixed. All I can say is that if we do buy the AT, Steve and Pat will love me as much as Jassman and Thunderdan! Remember...we plan on spending weekends and sometimes a week at a time on this boat, so any little imperfection is going to drive me crazy. It's like I told Steve...I'm not trying to trash the boat...I just want it to be the best it can be so that everyone else will be jealous

Well...anyway...so much for the woman's point of view. H20 says it's time to make a decision, so hopefully after this weekend it will be done We'll see about that. Sure would love to join your Thunder run at Lake of the Ozarks

Well, you guys had to go a do it, now Tbikini's undies are all in bundle (get it, thong bikini, undies in a bundle ) Its quite a sight to see .

Thanks for all the encouragement. I spoke with Pat today..................................he said forget it, I am not selling you a boat. He said anybody who is that slow at making a descision has no place in an Active Thunder . I agreed.

He did say that Tbikini could buy one though so I still have a chance

I really just wanted to post something. Sorry if I violated anyone

Jassman,

Good luck on your Thunder. We live in Lake Charles, LA and would like to boat w/you guys one day. I'm currently doing some winter maintenance on THUNDERSTRUCK but we'll be ready for spring/late winter. Do you Tickfaw200 or Royal Purple or Emerald Coast? Saw your boat on gcoffshore.com, looks good!

Allright H2O, since you can't make up your mind, I will flip a coin for you. Heads-AT, Tails-Formula. Well, looks like Heads wins. Place your credit card number on the board and we'll make sure your down payment gets to AT!!!


With friends like these who needs enemies, right?

Would you prefer Master card, Visa or American Express ?

Better yet, Active Thunder Dan and myself are going to hold TBIKINI hostage, latex her all up in stars and stripes and air brush for highlights. (thong is optional)
Your worse than some of my homeowners, do I want a roof with my house or not.
The good thing is that Pat will at least let the intelligent one in your family get a THUNDER I really want you guys and my buddy to get the last deals of the century. Now, this is the last time im going to ask, call me if you feel like talking about the other boats, I will give you my honest scoop 228-255-3400

THUNDERSTRUCK, HOW YA DOIN, WE HAVENT BEEN ON A POKER RUN IN 4 YEARS, MOVED FROM Wisconsin, plan on doing 4 to 5 this year once we get our new Thunder. I am unsure of the area but have some close local friends that can get us there, and are looking to find some boating buddies. Not to many boats like ours out here, looks like its going to be a great year, and I will be servicing the boat over Total Marine and Service in Slidell, Call me if you ever want to talk 228-255-3400 Jassby Custom Homes, number goes to the house, Good Luck to You

Pat, if you would,go to the Formula board, under boilerdaddy, read the post that was anwsered about the through bolting and the plexus making a stronger bond vs total glassing, am I missing something or could someone please educate my dumb ass Are they the only manufacturer that bond their hulls and top deck that way. Thankyou, will be humblely waiting a response
