What's w/ all the azz heavy talk, this 28 sonic in question is a sbc.

Also, the AT may 'look' fat because of its higher deckline.
The 24 Banana is also 8ft beam and does not have the same profile.
The higher deckline provides much more headroom and a more user friendly cabin.
As the boats get longer this 'raise' fades into the length.

And as far as a drivers boat... my 24 needed my attention.
My dads 40 sportfish doesn't need as much attention, maybe because i'm only going 24mph.
At 50mph, you better be focused. Too many people getting killed out there because of this.

Your wrong thrice. I didn't ask nor want the lakehouse. I bought my boat 22 year old boat with my own sweat and blood. Your hate against prosperity is duly noted on this forum. Didn't work so well when you went after RunninHotRaccing and ain't going to go over so well here either. I've worked on sewer pipes in 110 degree heat doing circles around mexicans so don't lecture me on being spoiled. You don't know me so quite attacking me; it just makes you out to be a clueless, classless little child; name calling like little children do. Grow up. Post something informative that might actually help the poster and stop acting like a child. While your at it go get a real education and take a class in physics so you can tell us why Newton's law of physics doesn't apply in a single vs twin application.

You need some help! Nobody attacks you, everyone is just tired of all your baseless accusations on boats and all your idiotic opinions and downgrading other people's boats. You do it all the time. As far as runninghotracing why would you even bring that guy up? There's a reason he has been banned from every possible boating webiste.

You keep talking about physics, GET OVER IT. As I mentioned earlier you kept on talking about this on the outerlimits sv29 thread about how that boat's handling was not going to be good because it was a 29 single and look at how wrong you got proved? You quickly shut up and went into your cave and never made another comment about it after numerous people called you out on it. Now you want to come on another thread talking about the same thing? Get over it man, I'm done going back and forth with you. Bottom line is people are tired of you jumping in and downgrading everything about other people's boat. To be honest with you, your boat ain't all that. There's a reason nobody bought it!

Your idiotic statements and accusations are noticed by not only me but by a lot of other people as well. You should take some of your own advice and if you have nothing positive to post then keep your trap shut.

Yes, i know that. I just don't see how it pertains to the 2 boats that this thread was originally about.
Yet, another thread OT.

Your the only one still talking about my 28 apache on this thread........keep it up. I enjoy the free advertising.

Its people like you why most on here don't post. I posted true concerns of a single vs twin engine boat on this thread. You on the other hand haven't posted anything to help the buyer make a decision. Instead you would rather hijack the thread by attacking those that do make informative posts. Those actions have no place on this forum. What good is it to attack everyone who makes a negative comment about a boat? There was a time when that was considered fascist. Would you of bought your avanti if nobody ever made a negative comment about a sonic, baja, or fountain? Would you of bought a boat with egg beaters if nobody told you the plus's and minus's of a sterndrive boat vs an outboard?

Why did you buy a twin engine 27ft avanti instead of a single? You never would of had the chance to of made an educated decision if your forum rules were implemented. Educated boaters need to know the cons, not just the pros. This isn't a powerboat magazine website were paid advertising is illustrated as a "boat test." And you need to grow up and stop making personal insults on this forum.

7 posts later and we still don't know which boat you would choose. Do you pick the AT or the Sonic? Can you make an informative posts with an explanation? Or would making a choice run afoul of your own forum rules?

Or maybe its just easier for you to attack other peoples post rather than actually engaging in a decision making process with an explanation. Much easier to be the bully than the nerd isn't it?
