Does anyone have info on these boats? I can't find any for sale, and can't find info on how many were made etc.

I see that you have an '86 boat. On the NADA website, there is a Sonic Marine 21' jet boat which is different than the Sonic USA boats on this forum. Whether or not these two companies were related back then, I don't know. NADA also gives the name J.R. Custom Marine.

The newer ones were a 220 sporster. They are kind of rare. I would like to get an open bow version.

J.R. Custom Marine refers to Jay Ross, which of course was THE man at Sonic USA until 2003-ish. I don't know the history on how the two companies got together or if they were merged, or if the Sonic name just stuck with Jay Ross, or something else, but the designer is definitely the same.

I've seen other sites that have the two companies listed together, and of course NADA shows them separate.

Anyone have the full scoop?

45sonic aka Bill ought to be able to shed some light on this. Wait for him to see it, or shoot him a PM.

I can't PM over here any more. Is he on one of the other sites? I don't see much Sonic activity anywhere. Is there a hot spot online for Sonic?

Believe it or not, this is the hot spot.
How much are you asking for your boat? I think I saw it for sale on one of the other boards.

I'm thinking of putting together either a blog or create a website for Sonic owners only so I can be reached or provide assistance when needed and allow other Sonic owners to be able to communicate.

Kind of a web based data log to keep track of existing Sonics, there whereabouts and owners. Not for any other reason than support for a product we bought and believe in.

Also would like to have a Sonic rendevous at some point

I'd like to know more about these boats and the relation to Sonic USA.

Also: I might be able to help you with a web site, I'm a web developer.
