I agree, a 38 700/NXT fountain runs 115...

38 fountain...don't forget about the beek

you knew someone was going to say that

I agree tho..it should be faster but only 16 hours so may not be dialed in yet

Sunsation includes the swim platform so that boat isn't even a true 32....people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones

I agree with that. Everyone wants to say " well a fountain runs this" let s not forget that Reggie just flat out has those hulls figured out! No comparison between this boat and a 38 fountain IMO.

38 is staggered though.

On the other hand, the Sunsation 32 was a pretty advanced hull but still a side by side boat...

My guess is you run out of hull before you do throttle.

I'm well aware of the true length of my 32
and that's an industry wide thing

I'm just tossing around some pebbles anyway.

+2. That and you can't get the most efficiency with a side by side set up. The staggered 36 Sunsation runs the same speed with 700s which is much more similar to the 38 Fountain set up.

Fact 1. – no comparison to a 38 ft boat or 36 ft boat or any other boat other than another 32 sunsation. Who cares if a 38, 42, 26 foot boat is faster with equal power is faster.

Fact 2. – 100+ mph in a boat of this size is going to be crazy fun!

Fact 3. – anyone that buys this boat, is going to buy the boat for what it is: a blistering fast boat that is 32’ of pure fun and excitement and most boats of comparable size will have a hard time keeping up!
