Hey Bob - I'll see the Fat Man tomorrow and give him your regards. Here's a pic of the new 35 I got from the Canadian.

Hey Boatracer I was thinking of calling The Fat Man today and try to get some lunch together this week. Hummmm a 35 .

Fobes....Don't recall Execution Express. Richie never "dressed" his boats that way from factory, so I might not remember it.

ahh!..this picture thing is killin' me!! :hothead:

guess it's time to pay!

;)

Bodyshot
I don't like it either. For posts I think it's greedy.

Hey Bodyshot,
I think I am going to be selling the red rocket and truck. I really do not want to and I know I'll regret it. (W/O motors). I/we really ran that thing pretty good, and still runs hard as you know, maybe down the road get another from Ritchie.

These pictures are killing me!
 

I am glad to see there is a group of Sutphen's out there. Just makes me want to go boating more and more... Keep the pictures coming!

Does anyone one know of a Sutphen "learnin 't fly" that boats at LOTO? If so what engines it runs?

Possibly that is the old Tsunami 34 with I think has around 540 type blower motors...around 750-800's? I'm trying to recall a little article I saw in Hot Boat a few years back.

I don't have any of the cockpit in my pictures. I'll see Bob this sunday and snap a few for ya. Here is one of my favorites. Last year with fuel injection and approx. 700HP!

Nice pics John.What drives are on Bobs Sutphen,looks like Berkley jets to me:D

Too Old ,that's my old boat that I told you ran 105 with the pair of 1000's. Nice pictures that R Addiction has of it. Looks like the new owner takes great care of her. Otto

36, Great Care is a huge understatement!!!;)

Too old-now look what R Addiction has got me doing...posting pics! Here are a couple of the 91 vintage interior I have.

Come on now Bob!! It's getting close to the end of our season what else are you going to do this winter? yank 'em out and go for 1000hp?:p

How was the boat ride? ;)

Do any of you guys know or what happened to 1980 38' Ocean Racer Called Pleasure Seekers?It was last seen at Fort Apache.It sat at Bobby Moore's For years.It was owned by Roger Mahan From Lake Hopatcong NJ.(I used to work on his Grand Prix Inboard Hydro Team)
The Boat had #4's and the last time I talked to Roger He claimed that he was going to have it hauled back to Jersey.1998 or so,My Buddy that works at TnT Rigging/Bobby Moores .Called me a year later and said that He heard it was going to be sold to pay for Storage fee's that were overdue.

Rob

Great pictures guys! It's tough to find pictures of Sutphens. Anyone have pictures of 26's? I'd love to see them.

Brian

Here are a couple of a 26 I had.

One more.

Caincando1/ here are the last two of a 26.

Last one.

That hull looks to have a nice small footprint compared to the I/O models and I like the larger cockpit.

Sutphil/ the 26, like all Sutphens has excellent lift above 70. Actually in that boat at 85 or so on smooth water basically only the last 8 or 10" of the keel is all that your riding on and the boat kinda trys to fall off which sets up a chine walk that you had to drive through. In rougher water it wasn't a problem. Great boat!

Thanks for the pictutres of the 26. I love the big cockpit on the ob model. They are such great looking boats!

Oh and just one question. What configurations do they come in? Twin O?B, Twin SB I/O, and single BB I/O?

A 26 Sutphen with twin weedwhackers and matching Diving boards:p

Nice pics Bob!!! Have any video?

:cool:

Caincando1,
Another 26 I/O.

Sorry these are dark.

Love those 26's. I'm always hunting around the internet for pictures of 26's. I guess I should have just asked.

Brian

Sutphil, Is that your Sutphen? Nice!!!!:D

Sutphil, 26 looks really nice! With the Io's it must have a nice ride in the rough stuff. Where do you boat?

Most of the time we boat in western Lake Ontario in this boat. It can get quite rough so that is why I would like a better ride, can you say 30 footer.
If you search back far enough in this section, Stillcrazy posted some pictures of it the day it left the factory in 1987. That's what is great about OSO!
