Difference in Black Thunder models
 
Where can I find information about the different models that Black Thunder made between 1989 and 2009. Thanks

Might want to contact the factory since they are open again.

I saw where Black Thunder has a Facebook page and they are introducing the new 2019 Black Thunder on it. I posted the same question there.

They have a contact form on their website too.

Older models up till 1991-3 iirc were 32s - prior to that we’re the Don Vee.

93ish 43 flat deck straight bottom
94 43 tall deck straight bottom

97 started with stepped hull bottoms and still some straight bottoms

98-99 built in/actual hull set back boxes like what an extension box would do

99-2002 43 EC tall decks were offered

2001 introduction of the 46 tall deck in both EXtended cockpits and standard cockpit sizes ( single vs double row of bolster seating)

2005 46 tall deck had a change in bottom and then again in 2007.

46 vs 43 tall deck: longer nose point and larger swim platform. Side air inlet scoops changed from louvers to a large scoop. I believe the cabin height also gain a few inches. Running surface remained same between 43/46 until change in 2005.


Aforementioned subject to change or revision but that’s the general progression of the line. :bananalove:

Parvey and I looked the “new” 46 BT over this weekend. Interested to see numbers from it. The 2008 46 with 700/nxt package could hit 90mph stock..... per hotboat magazine test back in the day. Still think that’s one of the best combos out there for a BT

the new ones look great. The BT has always had very nice lines.
