To date I believe there has been only one. We sold it to a gentleman in upstate NY with a 525 in custom devil red paint. I will dig out some pictures for you tomorrow. The boat was definitely bad azz.

Sorry Aj I should have specified just the engine was done in red. The paint is silver/grey/black with a merlot burgandy and matching trailer.

As far as Sutphen, yes still family owned, however, father and son are building seperately. Very long story that has been covered in the Sut forum. If you have nothing to do one day, it is a very good read!

WRONG AGAIN! HA:lolhit: they did not pick up the power play mold they used a 38 power play hull and cut and changed it to make the 43' I forgive you:drink: They did the same on the 32' to a 36' using thier own hull. But Power Play was and is an awesome boat and you're right, that is why they used it.

You are Correct,they used a hull not the mold.can you tell what difference that makes?

Well since you asked, I was giving you the correct information the internet is loaded with mis information so I try my best to give the honest facts and so you can learn too. They used the PP as a great platform to develop a great boat. There is a huge difference IMO. Sunsation did alot of work on the boat for balance and handling. It is not as easy as cutting a 38 and adding 5'. Then to take what you have created and make a mold is a whole task in it self. So you acted as if they bought the Pp mold cut it added 5' and they BAM magic they have a 43'. So IMO there is a difference....

Thanks for the lesson,but not needed I followed the thread when they built First Born.
I dont think anyone is trying to take anything away from Sunsation.,
so please dont take it personal,

When I hit the lotto I'm ordering a new F4 the same day, first thing on my to-do list. I've already designed the paint scheme in my head if Ur curious.... and it looks great....
