As in Active Thunder???

Before active thunder it was just Active Cat, MotorCity Magic, Blue Max, GK Systems, Flap Jack, Mr Roberts and many others.

What years were Active Cat & Active Thunder building them?

I dunno the years. Actives were around in the early-mid 80's

This boat is a 1992.

Then I would say Ocean Express , sure looks older than that though.

The owner tells me it was an Active Thunder.

I ran a check on the MIC "TUI3700292" and came up with this:

He also told me a few things and right away I felt someone was feeding him some BS.
One which he said Peter Hledin had designed and built the molds...
Seeing how rough and out of shape the lines were, I knew that was impossible...

What about this one???

The center console cobra, made in South Jersey

That's correct!!!
