Well, first off, I'll introduce myself, since I am new to this forum. My name is Nick, I reside in North phoenix, I don't know too many of the jet boaters around here, although I hope to in the future. Have seen quite a few of the phoenicians at the lake at one time or another.
Now, I have a 78 sunrise, not sure of the model, if they had more than one. I do believe it is a copy of a hallet bubble deck. I found out they were around for about 6 years in Mesa, Az. It has a stock 460 with a refreshed berkley with a a/b. I plan on building the motor up a bit this winter, to maybe around 500 horse. It runs 58 on g.p.s. now. My next purchase is a place diverter and a snoot. Will do that before I pull the motor to build it.
I was just curious if anyone had any opinions on these or the hallet hulls, it seems to ride well, although some what heavy. I don't need to hit triple digits would just like to go 75 or so. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. As I have already learned a ton just from reading through the 18 pages of topics in the last month or so.
