I have seen this boat a few times, and been impressed.... It would kick as in Georgian bay. Absolutely killer package with the Twin Promax's.
Also the driver knows a thing or two about offshore racing.... As noted by the shots of the legendary Tsunami Sutphen that I'm throwing in for fun(I believe he's on the sticks... But he can correct me if I am wrong..)

Mitch...you're doing a great job picking some great boats! Before the boat show (where I talked to RCFB) I never knew about the tsunami connection. I didn't know we had such depth in our membership lol.

Anytime you wanna share some racing tales...feel free Rob :)

Thanks guys, this is quite the honour.
My father and I started to race back in 1989 in a 24 Skater named Wildcat with 2.4L Bridgeports, we raced that until we barrel rolled it during the 1992 World Championships. We came back in 1993 with a used 33' Sutphen (1st Tsunami) and won the 93 World Championships. We had a new hull built for the 94 season (2nd Tsunami) and raced it until we retired from racing and sold it in 2006.

Mitchie, my father was on the sticks, I was the wheel man.
