Here ya go again I do not know what happened to the last ones.

Hi,
That is my sutphen, i bought it a few years back, has a great history, and is a real runner. THe boat was ordered New by a "character" of a man in north NJ and was raced only a few times by one of our great friends on the board, Steve Berk, then she went to Ed Toth, soon after in the early 2000s i bought the boat from a man in Ventnor (sp?) NJ. Not interested in selling, i am having just a blast running the boat this season, and working the buggies out of her. Thank you for all the kind words! Its an army Jeep no doubt!

Best Regards,

Christian Del Collo

I have pic's of the boat when it had a Blue Deck! Ed Toth also owned the Apache "Predator"!

When I owned that Sutphen I named it the Magic J.
Back then it was blue with a blue & white deck, I loved it, great ride !
Looks like the same as it was except for the color.
If you ever decide to sell it keep me in mind.
My family and I will be in Point Pleasant for the race would love to meet ya

I enjoy the boat so much!

Its not a hugely expensive boat to run and i really like doing all the work on the boat myself, it calms me down after a tough work week! Its not to large so i can put the boat in and remove her from the water myself if i wish to run solo, but many of my friends really like going w/me. The ride is awesome! At speed the boat never got out of line. I also enjoy the history of Sutphen, from the early 1900s' to the present, i am a proud "Sut" Owner!!


very best
Christian

Steve can you send me your #?
