They did not race, I am sure he will get him tho, the 35 is a much much bigger boat.

Brian's 35 runs 72 with 500 efis, personally I think it has more in it. Seemed to have a lot of prop slip.

Beautiful boat.

Ron,

Thanks for posting some pics for us. Glad you guys were able to make it out and go for a ride, couldn't have asked for a better day, especially in October. Hopefully we'll make it out to your neck of the woods next season, you're always welcome back to our club as well.

Good luck with your purchase and let us know how you make out.

Codeman, he certainly has me for top speed, like 4bus said, I'm a low 70's boat. I do need to get my props dialed in I think, we'll be contacting BBlades in the spring for some re-work.

As of right now we have three and possibly four Sonics on Sacandaga Lake. There is another 358 identical to mine, just purple instead of blue, Jim with the 31 from Codeman and we've heard rumors of another 358 (not sure on the year) that was a late season purchase, I haven't personally seen it yet though.

Hey 4Bus...I can also vouch for the 358. I have had my 2004 since 2007 and have loved it. Along with the looks and cabin the ride of a Sonic in rough water can match that of a much more expensive Cigarette...IMO.

I had mine listed last year but pulled it due to the market. I can send you some more pictures if you are interested. Either way feel free to send me a PM or email [email protected] with any questions. Happy hunting.

If I ever moved back home it would be five then. We could call it Sonic Nation or least try to keep up with the Pantera's on Lake George for the boat count in #'s making the GS Lake known for Sonics.

Nice looking boat! What power do you have?

PM me a price with options, I must warn you though I am working on the deal of the century on a 2003 358 with 90 hrs

Thanks again! Yes you definately have some prop slip going on, and you should sync those throttles, I don't know that you are getting WOT.

The wifey thinks she found a new friend with your girl, which is great because she really doesn't like anyone lol.

We will definately be out next year, you need to make the treck out here and to the islands for pirates week!

Nice looking boat

I did the prop slip calc and it looks like I have about 23% - 24% prop slip.

I'm having the all injectors checked next season so make sure they are up to snuff. I think they are my problem with staggering the throttles, starboard motor also starts harder which is leading me to believe I have one maybe two weak injectors. WOT is 5200 on Port and 4800 - 5100 on the starboard.

Glad they got along, they seemed to be hitting it off at lunch, that will make things easier when we meet up next year, lol.

We are definitely going to make it out your way next year, no doubt about it.

Let me know when you close the deal, interested to know what you end up with.

You may also want to do a load test to determine that all of your cylinders are firing correctly. If nothing else in the setup has changed (eg. new cable) it may be a plug wire off or a weak cylinder. Also, if your model has fuel valves make sure they are in the full open position and are not restricting the flow. It has happened to me a couple times and once was a plug wire off and the other was a restriction in the fuel valves. We ended up removing the valves all together and fixed problem.

Also, if you have a scan tool you can check to make sure that the computer is seeing 100% throttle when at WOT with engines off.

A couple of us have had our props tuned by a local shop in Maryland and it seems to have helped a little. They showed us the computer scan of the props before and after and it was amazing how much they were off most of which they said is like that from the manufacturer. If you are interested check out Black Dog Propellers here.

Hope this helps
