We have a new walkthrough 33 Active Thunder in development now, per a specific customer request. It will be a walk through design; not a mid cabin. Decision has not been made to go with OB or IO power at this point, but with a pair of 525s, this boat should run 90+. We are excited about the new project.

Thats exciting news. Is it going to be like a dual console boat? I think that would be a great addition. Make a 33 with option for center console, dual console walk thru, or cabin, OB's or IO.

Went to the Nor-Tech factory and talked with Terry Sobo in great detail about what I want, I think the Nor-Tech 340 CC is what I'm looking for. he said that they could custom build what I'm looking for.

I do my boating up in Michigan.

The wife is skeptical due to the cost. Still working on it.

Nor-tech builds a helluva boat.

Oh, and here's the other thing, likely the ONLY time I would go that fast is if I was doing a long cross-lake trip with a buddy or two and we were all in the helm seats - I think going that fast with a cabin full of people would be a life-trauma experience for kids / wives / etc., so that would never happen. It's more about capability. If I want to do it I can.

I want this boat to be incredibly capable.

Like I said I was really impressed with Nor-Tech. Basically any ideas I had they said "yes". That's pretty awesome.

How fast do you think you can get he new Forumla Sunsports to go if you went with big power and surface dives

Good deal. They build a helluva boat. Their cabin-in-center-console setup is awesome. Good luck with your decision & the wife-sway!

They've built a few 400SS with Ilmor 725's and running in the 70's :drool1:

How about a tri-toon with a 525? :)
