I do think the 43 F4 Sunsation may be the best all-around towable go-fast condo on the market today. But the 43 to 50 NorTech's are certainly popular.

Earlier in this thread I mentioned the 39' Skater Vee. It was questioned if it were a viable option as it was unknown if it were being built anymore. Well, it is. The Serious Upper Midwest News Team visited Skater on Friday, (more pics and information to come), and there is one being prepared for the Miami show currently. A teaser:

So, we have another solid contender confirmed for the Best Deep Vee category in my opinion. With identical power, and before they continued to add weight to slow it down, the Spiderman Skater Vee was almost unstoppable against all others....

I'll take that as a cue to post this!

Seeing the V was definitely a highlight of the day. Love that boat. It's in a league of it's own.

That Skater is beautiful.

It is a very good looking boat. And I will never forget how well the Spiderman performed.

I am a bit surprised there is such a short list of the Best Vee made today. Also not much of an argument with the candidates so far.

I am going to mention the 41 Pantera. The boat shipped overseas was a great piece....

Pantera has a very interesting project coming out of the 41 mold. As soon as they get a little further along, I expect to see some posts from the Pantera guys. It will no doubt be a contender.

If you're talking the best high-speed performance Condo-Vee, I'd go with it or the Sunsation 43. The Sunsation also has amazing performance numbers. I believe it won two Powerboat Peformance Awards the first year. Only boat to ever do that I think. Wasn't it over 100 with 700 mercs?

I was more or less being a smart ass as they are no longer in production... lol

Have you talked with Bob or Shane?
