nice find, never heard of them before......sure looks like the same hull bottom as Tempest, Viper, Scorpion......

The ragepowerboats sure looks like a copy of the Miami based scorpion.

The RAGE 32 sport is the 32 activator that PETER MEYER and JOE SGRO raced in the 90s. I popped a viper for TOM MASOTA in the early 80s. The fiore family wanted me to build thier boats, so the mold I made for TOM went to FLA. I always assumed that became the 32 SCORPION mold. Any way when someone aproached me with the chance to use a burnt 32 SCORPION for a plug I did. I changed the transom angle, made the strakes wider, and lengthened the keel strakes. The deck was tooled from scratch.The VIPER mold was destroyed in a fire so I was told.

What did you do with the plug you made from the burnt Scorpion? Did you pop any boats? I'm a little unclear. |
its one of the coolest looking v bottems ever made!!!
there is a great freeze frame video of one stuffing, Im trying to find it now |
When I finished making the 32 sport mold I put the plug outside. At the time I had a 10,000. sq ft shop in the airport, security and all, someone stole the plug in middle of the night. However we did build 5 or 6. I still have the molds.
|
I believe that the video of the stuff was a NEW JERSEY race, and they won it.

Man that boat was forsale forever. It had motors, then listed without motors, then had motors again. I think it was forsale for atleast 5 years, maybe more.
It was always in my price range, but I just could never get past that paint job. |
