I know that you buy your Sonic 45 from a good friend of mine Michel Auclair.
I have a 32 Sonic fast cat with 400's on the way.
It'll be ready for delivery at the end of January.
It'll be fully loaded with 3 screens, Alcantera interior from Fineline and sits on a Manning Marine Trailer.
An all new built vacuum resin infusion foam core boat.
It'll be 600 pounds lighter than the previous built and stronger.
People at Sonic are great guys. It's not a fancy factory, but they know what they do. And they do it well.
You can call Tony anytime of the day and he'll be quick to answer your questions.
Ravi , the factory manager, work there for a long time and knows everythig about Sonic boat builts.
Tony Canale, the owner, is a well know off shore racer and world champion. Passionned about boats and he's an engines genious.
It'll be my 11th boat but my first cat.
The fastest that I had was my Fountain 42 Lightning 2012 with 700's ( 103 mph ), and hope this one will do more than 120.
I'm from Quebec but do most of our boating days on lake Champlain.
So, see you this summer on the lake.

Why not just wash it, keep it clean as if it is a current project vs. a soon to be salvage boat? Cleaner boats look better on the lot!

People at Sonic are great guys. It's not a fancy factory, but they kn
ow what they do. And they do it well.


As with a lot of hand built products , it's the men doing the work , not the roof..

Not really the same company as the "real" Sonic and Powerplay.
Find out the first 3 letters of HIN's and see what the names of the companies really are.
