I tried to get this subject going on the other thread but I wasn't very successful. So I'm gonna post here as well as in the Sunsation forum.

I'm trying to run some efficiency numbers of this set up. I'm aware that a 500 efi will get this set up into the low 70's. I'm just looking for some more and most definately some higher hp numbers/efficiency.
The more numbers I have the better average I can assume for any given single 32.

What I need is:
hp
drive ratio
prop pitch/diameter
wot r's
wot speed

If you don't want to post please email or pm. This is just for number purposes only.

Right now Dave Sunsations is very busy with boat shows and the factory doen't necessarily know what people are actually using/getting. So that's why I'm not bothering him.
However, Dave has told me of a 725 hp getting in the high 80's (around 88) but the prop and drive were not a possitive ID.

If you have or know of someone with this set up, please let me know.

Thanks
DAVE

another board member ( I don't know his handle) That lives in my area has a 32 sensation with a hp500 with a wippel. I know he has a drive extension and a heavy duty bravo. He had the factory set the boat up with a very high X dimension. What I can tell you for sure is that with 4 people (my self included) 1/2 tank of gas we ran 87 mph on gps. Yes that is right a 32" ft single engine V hull running 87mph. I believe that when he gets the correct prop, running by his self in good conditions, that boat will run 90's. The owner is a great guy and will be able to tell you what you are looking for. I will try and get his e mail for you.

there is a 288 blown one on trader its running 90+
40K not a bad price for a 288 single that will whip some
butt,, Im gonna get one in a year or 2
anyone know what the insurance rates are on these?
I've grown out of my 25'

The OSO members username is "dominating S/32".
He is getting some good numbers with a supercharged HP500.
His e-mail is [email protected]
His name is David Bottge. I've bought his old (nice) 27' Activator.

DJ, the insurance rates for any of these performance rigs is too much. But we pay due to the addiction of the sport/hobby. I feel that most of us are the most cognizant and aware boaters on the water. The insurance brokers feel otherwise.
See Ya on Cayuga!

I just wonder if sunsations rates are higher
Like a 29 outlaw is about 900 with twins
is a 288 sunsation with big single going to
be more???

TOPDJ, I 'm paying $820 a year thru Progressive for a 288 with a single stock 496Ho...

thanks RLW. I'll try to email him.

DAVE

anyone else??

Hot boat,
If you could get his specific info for me that would help me out tremendously. I'd be very interested in his numbers.

I'm estimating he's in the high 700 hp range.

thanks
DAVE

here is a link to the post from a few months ago. This should help.
