What a perfect boat! Make the second row of bolster seats easily removable and it's an absolute Home Run!!

If things can stay going good in life this will be my next big boat purchase for sure but with more of that wrap around open cockpit idea they had. I love everything they are doing here and it looks amazing!!!!


Great job by all involved.

Needs some of the new merc power. 300s are obsolete already.

Outstanding looking boat! Great new direction for Active Thunder. I think this boat is going to keep the Active Thunder factory busier than ever! Congrats! I must say that I'm quite proud of once being part of the Active Thunder family and happy that they continue to build great boats!

Thumbs up

I crawled all over the boat last Tuesday and Wednesday while visiting AT. Pics don't even come close to doing the paint justice. It has an overall pearl clear-coat, including the engine cowls that just pops! Patrick can do any configuration you want in the cockpit. I kinda favored a u-lounge like the 28 Checkmate OBX but the leg room in the Poker Run version between the rear bolsters and aft bench is really amazing. Bring Patrick the $$$ and he'll rig whatever engines you want including the 400R. The point and concept of this line of boats is to keep the cost down as much as possible so it's relatively affordable when compared to some other comparable sized offerings.

I'll gladly accept one of the motors as a donation. Ya know, since they're obsolete and all...

The boat looks amazing, Pat. I think you are on to something with this set-up.

Instead of editing my reply, let me expand.

Yep, I could have done 400 Mercs or Sevens, But let's get real. It's a 29 foot boat,

It should run 75-80 with this power. And comfortably. More importantly, affordable.

You guys need to be able to get back in to the game with some new stuff that doesn't break the bank or cause divorce.

Open your eyes and think about a brand new boat with 5 years of engine warranty and life time hull warranty for about $600 a month with your trade or small down stroke.

Anybody get it?
