just wanted to update: I took delivery of my sonic on Saturday night it looked very nice on the trailer however much better in the water. I brought my 13 yr old who was leaving for school the next day for a ride. It was great to see her face when I punched it.... the boat jumped out of the water very qucikly and we were running at 50 with in a few seconds. the 8.2 motors really put out some power. we blaseted around the bay for a bit and came in... I must have cought some seaweed or something because I strated to have some trouble getting the boat back on plane. today I wnet back played with the props some and went int he watrer again. spent two hours on it flying around the bay, aorund Newprot and Jamestown. the boat ran great... steady at 40 mph better over 70.... I did however miss my outboard motor as I noticed the gas gague and saw that I went through 1/2 tank of gas... oh welll best gas I ever burned. I will have several photos posted later of it on the water. Thanks again Carmine and Tony..... it is well worth the wait.

Congratulations. Still plenty of time to use it around here.We may head to Newport next Sat.I'll keep an eye out for you.Good luck with her.

Congrats!

Please post some top speed GPS numbers when you get a chance. I know the 32 Sunsations have been running substantially faster with the new 8.2's. I'm curious to see if that's the case with the 31SS.

Congrats ! I know you will love your 31 as we do ours !

Bondo10 if you get to Newport send me an email... I can be on the water in ten mins.... I am very happy with it. It handled the waves as my daughter described " like a tank" I did not push it at all but ran it up to 4400 and it read 71 on the gps.. backed it right down as I do not want to chance the warranty but the speedo was climbing ...... playing with the trim and tabs... at 2800 it was going 40 mph.... at 3400 51.... very steady.. we now have 3 .8 hours on the engines, by tomorrow that should be near 10.. so as I put more time on it I will push it more and post the top end speeds. I will add It is running 26" bravo 4 blades...

thanks for your well wishes.... I know carmine was happy to hear from me today.. I know he really worked hard to get this boat to me.. What a difference a few feet make on the water. coming from my 24 banana to the 31 this plows through the waves... and the torque on the 8.2 is realy nice. going out again right now ....
