That is one beautiful boat! Great job! I must say the boat looks tuff, That is the best advertisement for Mitcher T's work I have ever seen. and those tabs from Trick marine just look sick! I can't wait to see more from Chief (especially the 28) I'll keep saving my pennies. :D

Congrats.

What does this mean for Active Thunder? Are the 28, 33, and 37 Chiefs the current AT models? Seems awfully coincidental that AT just happens to build a 28, a 33, and a 37 - and nice ones at that!

Can't wait to see the nekkid pics of that beast! :D

SOX 02-09-2005 09:51 PM

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
Pardon me if This is common knowledge but what is the relationship between Active Thunder and Chief? I see AT's 28 Savage as the model on the Chief site. Is AT and Chief merging? I know Active Thunder is a quality boat so that only helps further Chiefs pedigree of quality boat builders on the job.

Doh! That's what I get for posting before reading the whole thread, the pics were right there! Fantastic looking ride, guys!!

The paint job is killer. Probably one of MT's best.

Sounds like the soap opera is about to breal loose..... :rolleyes:

boatme 02-10-2005 07:45 AM

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
No this is not from the 47'

The molds are Nu Teck molds that where designed and built by Bobby Saccenti for a now defunct company called Nu Tek

We have since acquired the molds and with Bobby Saccenti (part of the Chief Powerboat team) and have fine tuned them

We have created additional new molds (note the engine hatch and dash consoles) to give the old school look a new and current styling

The Chief 28 savage on the chief website is a picture of an active thunder savage. Will both companies be making the same boat with different options ala GMC/Chevy or is AT discontinuing production of it?

If you look in the A.T. section, It says that all A.T.'s will now be called Chiefs... The 28 32 and 37 are original A.T. and the 42 and 47 are B.S. built now defunct Nu teck / Apache hulls, A.T. and Chief merged and now all boats are being called Chiefs...

AWESOME - AWESOME!! :eek: Congrats guys - in talking with Bobby last year at the Clevelander it sounded very encouraging at that point, then seemed to go quiet... way to open it back up - loud and proud!! :D

And yes, inquiring minds want to know, what is the AT / Chief relationship? Is Pat part of the new tribe or...? :cool:

MassiveThunder 02-10-2005 09:00 AM

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
Pat is part of the tribe.

DoTheMath 02-10-2005 09:00 AM

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
So, one more observation - now that I have looked at the web site... (came out great!!). Is the chick in the Chief web site in the black Bikini the same one standing on the deck of the 35' Nordic ad in the most recent issue of Powerboat? :) Just curious.

MassiveThunder 02-10-2005 09:00 AM

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
the question is .........what kind of tribe.???.........lol

Hey Marc that is a piece of art work as far as I am concerned. That boat is beautiful. It is a lot harder than most people think to have all the things finished to the right level of quality. Wow that paint is hot and so is the design of the boat. Keep up the good work well see you at smoke on the water.

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
1st off...Beautiful Boat!!! Sounds like you have a awesome team put together. I know that I'm satisfied with my AT that Pat built for me about 6 years ago. The paint is MT at his best. Love the look!! Too Old....nice parts. Looking forward to a finished project and #'s (price and speed) :D

bryanspeedracer 02-10-2005 10:01 AM

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
Great. Another awesome boat that will keep me up at night fantasizing.

Can't wait to see it in Fla. I'll be the one with wearing a bib, drool stains...:)

This is the first boat coming out of our company and we are excited to be the latest edition to the performance boat industry. Chief Powerboats will be providing V hull boats from 28’ through 47’.

Attached is a sneak peek of the First Mohican, boat number 1, shrink wrapped and waiting to be put on its new trailer. The new trailer is complete and will be put under the boat today. The boat will head out for cabin, cockpit and rigging at our Florida facility by the end of the week.

This boat has an awesome paint job done by Mitcher T custom painting and I am sure will get the attention of many of the magazines in the next year. This boat has got to be seen up close to appreciate the detail work

This phenomenal piece of artwork will be available for viewing just a short trip from the Miami Boats Show this coming week. Please don’t hesitate to contact me for a personal look at our product line

Look for this boat as she makes her national poker run debut in the 2005 boating season. It is sure to turn heads and have people talking!

We are also excited to announce that we have put Active Thunder’s CEO under the Chief head dress in conjunction with well know chief, Bobby Saccenti, to run the building of all Chief Powerboats. We will now provide a complete array of sizes to the market place under the Chief Powerboats name and they will be available through a complete national dealer network this coming year.

Chief Powerboat’s line up of boats is as follows

28' Savage
33' Raven
37' Warhawk
42' Warrior
47 ' Heritage


Look for our banner ad on this site in the next week

Congrats to the Chief Team and Pat at AT on his new endeavor It's a gorgeous piece :drink: :drink: :drool:

Question though Marc ... is the hull going to be at the Miami Boat Show ... or near by the Miami Show??

Re: Chief Powerboats - The Beginning of a new tribe
 
does this mean that the new chief line of boats will not be produced in fla.? are the 28 ,32, 37 active thunder models still going to be from the same molds or is chief going to change them ?

NJG

The Chief Boats will NOT be at the Miami boat show. But we will be close by as we finish the rigging and interior of the 42'

If you want to visit the boats let me know we can accommodate a viewing :)

contact me at [email protected] or send me a PM here

At least the 3rd time this question has been asked, with no response. Based on the Chief website, I'm guessing AT will still be building boats and they'll photoshop in the Chief name. ;)

My apologies to all parties involved. It would seem that I was misinformed on some of the info that I was given.

It IS a GREAT LOOKING BOAT and I wish ya'll ALL the success in the world.
