Thinking obout selling my 45'
 

I'm thinking about selling my 45' sonic. It is the exact same paint job as WMLove's new boat pictured on this thread. Does anyone know of anyone that might be interested ?

1994 w/ trip 540 bulldogs, lift kept in fresh water. With trailor.

Thats alot of boat!!! I think it would be easier to sell with twins, Thats going to be my next move up but thats a long way off!

The great thing about the trips is that you cruise at 50mph at 3400 rpm's.

this kinda caught my eye since i'm [sorta] looking. where are you located at?

I'm in Michigan City Ind. If your interested, let me know. The boat is in beautiful condition. Approx 280 hrs on the motors. That's actual hours. The boat was stored for about 2 seasons and not used. Never salt water. CMI big tube headers and CMI mufflers. Boat on a hydro hoist summers, trailor winters. No poker runs.

hey bud enable pm's

in st.joe, mich so michigan city is really close. might have seen your boat before. any pics? now i have to seriously think about selling mine. interested in a trade, hehe?

I'll get you some pictures. The boat sits on a lift in front of the condo's in MC. I just ordered new vinyl for the eng hatch and top of back set from Sonic. It wasn't quite right so I replaced it. You won't be disappointed. No trades though. Like I said, color scheme is the same as wmloves on the Sonic thread. We're in St Joe and So Haven a lot.

How much are you looking for and what options does the boat have?

Oh and by the way I have a 2003 45 for sale. Triple 525's triple ITS. Loaded and featured in this months Powerboat mag. It is listed in the Classified section.

Just curious......what did she max out at MPH wise, and what props are you using ? Like the 45, but basically it is the same size as my 42 interior wise. The extra 3ft you get accomodates the third engine. Plus you have the added weight from the extra hull length, engine and drive, make me wonder is it really worth it ?

Can procharge my 42 and probably go faster than the 45.

Thanks in advance for the info.......

Catagory5 is a Sonic dealer in New Jersey. :D

As Dano said I am a dealer in NJ. And the 2003 45 is NOT new technically. It is a customers but he has not even put it in the water. I think he bought it out of habit. He has owned many Sonics. It is a great oppertunity to save some money. The ONLY hours on the boat are the test hours put on by Powerboat Mag.
