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.

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


http://checkmate-boats.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=13951



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
