Not sure why they remove the boat accidents that involve Sunsation boats from the site and leave others on.

You are dog the bounty hunter of the internet forums can dig anything up in the blink of an eye:lolhit: I guess it was on there the owner asked Sunsation to remove it as Chris said in the Sunsation forum.

No actually I dont care that much to research old Sunsation threads...I just googled sunsation boat accident and this is one that came up..


Why remove the Sunsation boat accident?

I have no idea why I did not even know it was on there, also I guess the owner wanted it taken down, plus I don't know if Tres teaches how to drive when drinking:eek: If that is true or not just going by the news report.

Nice trailer but not for my fake step boat:drink: dammit. I am in need of a trailer but not in a huge hurry for this year. Would you go steel again?

What's even funnier is that these people have no clue what happened and still get on and talk chit like they know... kind of like when that innovator rolled everyone cried driver error and "what an idiot", claiming the guy didn't know how to drive a boat to save his life. Then turns out he was a professional powerboat racer, lol. Irony.

Well if TRES is too high and mighty to teach drunk boat operation I guess ill have to step up and fill the void!

For as bad as everyone harassed me about my boat operation skills over there, I must say my boat still floats and ill be using it this weekend.

This is like the 4th 32 sunny that has died in the hands of an Illinois boater I've read about. Can none of you guys drive down there, or are Sunsations just that badass?

Good luck with the sale. It's a lil small for what I'm looking for.

Verbi & Jake- found this old thread about 380 speeds with power adders and different props... figured you could find it somewhat helpful.

Hey AJ thanks for the info...I am curious to see what my top end will be after all the work. Changed prop pitch and getting 5500 rpm (what whipple recommends).

Have a quick trip planned for July 1st/4th weekend...GF is bringing the camera!

with out a trailer I would think 26-28k if it has the 454 385hp mag efi
a little less if it has the 7.4 454 310hp efi

verbi69 06-26-2011 10:50 AM

There good boats that handle well for a 28 footer.

verbi69 06-26-2011 10:52 AM

We'll be out for our second ride of the year next weekend.......I think I will let the legs loose on this beast and see where it will run on top.
If it doesnt break 80 I think I'll put some whipples on it!!

Verbi,

With HP525's you'll top 80 no prob....but put whipples on anyway!:eek:

This coming weekend will be my first run of the year, first run with the fresh engines. Can hardly wait! Curious what top end I'll get but just being on the water and hearing those mills purr is enough satisfaction.:drink:

We're real anxious to get out as well, seems it has been forever!!

verbi69 06-27-2011 10:44 AM

What is the wot rpm of 525's.....5200 or 5400 rpm??

On Time 06-27-2011 11:46 AM

Supposedly 5200 stock. Mine bump the rev limiters at about 5150. But you can reprogram for higher if you like!

Considering a 38 Avenger. Are those good boats?

Where's Campion Chase been?? Met "white belt" Corey at LSC this weekend and he claims Campions boat(same graphic boat as corys new one) was trashed/filthy (I thought otherwise). I also thought it was kind of ironic since his last boat beaver retriever looked like it was washed with a mud hose lol. Not a very personable guy...

I'll be up at torch this week... hope some of you guys are up there!
