we'll see. even 2-3 would be well worth the money spent. we'll see

You won't be disappointed! Let us know how well it works.:ernaehrung004:

wasn't aware of that. Boat does really well, Sunsation has a great hull and is a relatively light boat so that helps

yup. here is what Joe (one brother of sunsation) had to say.




"The first performance boat I ever owned was a 16' Checkmate, from there my brother and I started Sunsation Powerboats and the rest is history. I have always had a passion for Checkmate, very glad to see Doug back at the helm of another sucessful company. Checkmate is top notch"


his hole thing can be seen here

then here is what chris had to say..



"Joe Sunsation mentioned that there is a great group of people over here on the Checkmate Forum so I thought I'd drop bye and say hello and thank you.

I owe alot to Checkmate not only are they responsible for having a hand in the start of Sunsation, Checkmate is also the boat that started the Hi-perf bug in my family. My Dad's first boat was a Checkmate that he bought to drag race (after getting to many tickets street racing) before I was even born. Later I went on and made a Checkmate Enchanter with a 200 Black Max my first boat as well.

Checkmate is on helluva boat with a great group of owners!

THANK YOU CHECKMATE! THANK YOU DOUG FOR KEEPING IT GOING!

Here is a pic of Dad's first Checkmate"



and it can be seen here.

i must say, i own an hvac company. for me to say publicly that another hvac company is great and good etc etc, i know it will be the truth. i wouldnt say it.
for these guys who build great boats to say this about checkmate, it makes me pretty happy to have a checkmate:drink:
