THERE'S 2 IN MASS.

I think if a boat builder wants to sell more boats they need to get some out on the race course & poker run circuit.
Back in the late 70's & early 80's Sutphen ruled the Production classes in the APBA offshore racing. I woud think they sold alot more boats back in the day.

In the "old" days in New england you would see more Sutphen's than Cig's. Some people up here will just not part with them, they love them so much! Just wish the brand was more "visible"!

They had 1 Sutphen on the Thursday Key West Poker Run.

Yup!!!!!!!!!!

You aint kidding! There's still a bunch of old Sutphens up here in the north east. I've got a friend that bought a 30 Ocean Pacer new from Offshore Speed & Ski back in 1983. T 370/TRS. It's like brand new, has less than 50 orig hrs! The only time its been outside is when it was in the water. It lives in his toy barn, never been left in the water overnight, never been outside overnight! It really has been in a time capsule although it has not been wet for over 10 years.

I have an '82 ocean pacer. I just got the engines off of the dyno and should have it running this weekend. I was able to take it out a few time before the rebuild and it rides sweet. Mine has surface drives and once you get her on plane you feel it float up. It feels like your riding on air. I haven't had a chance to get her in big water yet but she ran her whole life in the Pacific and ate it up.

I,ve got the old "INFERNO", Man what a ride in 3-4 footer's!! Thinking about racing it this year, OPA. 1977 and still goin' STRONG!
