Yep, which size are you looking at buying this spring? We've got new boats in stock!

Re: What ever happened to Chief Boats?
 

I'd *love* a 37' with side by side bolsters, Millenium cabin, and 525's matched with the Merc ITS. Graphics like the red 28' I've been drooling over on the AT site.

Stick it on a Myco and I'll be down with my life savings of $2.37 to pick it up once the snow melts! :D

Actually, I figured AT was building boats, but I had read somewhere (here maybe) that AT was no longer associated with Chief. This stuff is awfully hard to keep straight.....

I am suprised he didn't post an answer to the question as they are said to be in partnership with Cheif. Something doesn't seem right. :(

Wheres's my 42-47, Im still waitin, been 2-1/2 years :p :D Just stretch my old 37, give me a little more width 9-9'3", throw an xtra step in their or 3, make sure you have over 6'2" of headroom, use space age materials and keep the weight down to around 11-11500 pounds. What the hell ya waitin for, build it under the A.T. name AND THEY WILL COME. Have a good holiday chicken sh*t. :evilb: :drink:

Sound Advice

Re: What ever happened to Chief Boats?
 

OK.....I heard through the " RUMOR MILL" and I stress RUMOR MILL.....that CHIEF was done and everything will be ACTIVE THUNDER........again........so before anyone goes nutso.......just info passed on third party. I would also assume that CHIEF reps would have responded directly to this thread with accurate information on the company by now.

Re: What ever happened to Chief Boats?
 

There is no merger between Active Thunder and Chief. It was and is a marketing marriage. Plain and simple: If you want a 28/33/37/42/47 (47 still under development) foot boat built with a quality hull and some Bobby Saccenti influence and craftsmanship; you get ahold of Bobby & Chief Powerboats.

Pat/AT still builds/sells/markets 28/33/37 foot boats just like always.

what a mess...this makes my brain hurt. Good thing I dont have any money to spend... :( Good luck to all involved.

Re: What ever happened to Chief Boats?
 

So, what is a 42' Chief worth with it being a one-off and maybe no company behind it? Tough to sell.

Thanks for clearing that up Brian!!!!

Merry Christmas to all!! :drink: :drink:
