Look out for Sunsations

This thing is really not a performance boat!

They are nice but really aren't in the same league as some of the other off Shore boats. I personally would own one IF I lived on a lake and never saw serious rough water or if I never wanted to have the creature comforts that make boating all weekend more fun.

I agree with you. I went to the boat show and was talking to the rep. and he stated how fast the boats were. I told him he was dreaming and told him I had smoked his 85 mph boat with my 75 mph boat and that was on calm water. Get me out on 2 to 3 footers and were not even in the same ballpark. He about lost it. He said no way-the guy must not have been racing. I told him it sure looked to me like we were racing. He did beat me later but I found out he had to turn on the bottle. Hey I guess it was an 85 mph boat.

Also the cockpit is too small and tight if you are 5'6" and weight 150# it might fit....

Wow, this is the first time I've every heard Sunsation bashed. I've still never heard of an unhappy owner though.

I'm a very happy Sunsation owner, and really haven't heard of a truely unhappy owner - my 25' Aggressor handles well in the Ches. Bay - rock solid in 3' chop. Moving up in power to 675hp 572 motor - will see how it goes this Spring.

I love my Sunsation !!! Although they are not for everyone. They're a drivers boat. I would compare them to a corvette, handle great, but not a lot of creature comforts. If you're into handling, and performance it's a great boat, and you can't touch the, for the price. If you're more into style, and luxury than it's not the boat for you.
Just my opinion. There are plenty of different type of boats out there, so I'm sure everybody can find something they like.

Don't worry Dave. Most on the board would ignore someone who is brand new coming in to bash a manufacturer without any reason, cause, or other related topic. I don't take it seriously at least...

I've never even seen one in person. They look nice though.
