I believe the boat was made from the Vyper (sp) mold. I think I remember reading somewhere they have a 25 degree bottom. best of luck with the boat.

The Tempest 32 is a pop of our old Scorpion 32. Same as the Avance 32 also. Well built boat. Good luck with her.

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.

Rage,

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

rageman28 04-15-2011 07:01 AM

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.

rageman28 04-15-2011 07:37 AM

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.

I looked at her when she was for sale 4 years ago in Harrision Twp Mi. At that time they wanted 18k with the drives missing. The paint job cost the owner big money, as the painter dose great work as you can see, just a little hard on the eyes. :eek: For 13k it's a good buy.

Isn't it a panther on one side and a dragon or something on the other?

If they just would have left the animals off, I probably would have really looked into it more.
