Yes Attitude Adjustment are some of our best friends we boat with them every weekend. The pictures and video look like everyone had a great time at the Thunder Run. We are counting the days to Key West. Are you making a trip down there. What kind of boat do you have now? Are you the one who was doing the sea trial of the Active Thunder the day of the run?

Talkin Trash

I am the wife of the guy who complained about his throttles all weekend....That will tell them exactly who it is Actually, we took delivery of our new Active Thunder in early September, but it was only our 3rd time in it during the Thunder run. It is a 37AVH with 500 EFI's called Thunder Enlightening. It is still down in Florida as we speak, but my husband will probably be down the day after Thanksgiving to pick it up and then it will go into storage for the winter. BUMMER

Tell the Attitude Adjusments we said Hi and I think we got those throttles fixed too

Mine has 496 HO's with every PQ option except the baby seat. I have it GPS clocked at 81 mph and she rides like a dream with the windscreen/fairing vice windshield.

Hey Dave and Deb
We would come up to Michigan and ride but its a little too cold. So we will be thinking of you tomorrow when we are out on the boat enjoying the emerald green water and the hot Florida sunshine. It was great hearing from you. We had a lot of fun hanging out with ya'll. It would be great to go to Michigan to see you and see some real snow for the first time. Alan and Shanna

Not bad for a boat with stock power plants. I wonder if any other manufacturers can claim that!! And I'm talking one that the wife can stand up in the cabin.

Enjoyed runnin' with you yesterday Dave!

TALKIN TRASH,
Up here none of us has actually ridden on an Active Thunder much less, actually seen on. Since you OWN the Vyper and have ridden on a AT, could you go into as much detail as possible as to how the AT rides COMPARED to the Vyper. I know it is not the same length but, VERY curious as to how it compares to the PQ.

Any info you can share is appreciated.


BTW: NO, I am not looking to buy one. Just VERY curious if it is ALL THAT!!

Thanks in advance

BTW: If any Vyper owners are able to try a labbed 30P Bravo1. I'm running one now and getting a solid 80 w/ 3 people and 1/2 tank of fuel. I'm hitting the rev limiters, BUT it is pretty cool now, about 55 degrees. I imagine I'll lose about 150 RPM when summer hits. But a consistant 80. . . . not bad for 34' and stock motors!!!!!
