For any of you Go Fast fans. A Sunsation 36Dominator just shipped from the factory in Algonac Michigan on it's
way to a doctor in Texas. Beautiful boats they make there. This one will plane in 3 seconds and top out over 100mph.

If you have a boat like that built specially for you, fuel cost would not be an issue. It uses more fuel in a 1 day on the water than we spend on fuel for an entire season !

Beautiful boat! I can't imagine going 100 mph on the water. I wouldn't be worried about the spray from outside the boat, i'd be worried about the spray inside the boat!! :oops: Great pics by the way!!!

We have a few 44' fountains in our marina..... I heard numbers thrown around about how much fuel they drink...Kind of makes you sick but everyone has hobbies

We have a few bots like this in our area and in fact have some running three engines similar to those. A buddy at the Marina says those guys will burn up $1500.00 in fuel in one weekend!! If I could afford a boat like that I would probably have one. Speed is my game. Love it!!

Beautiful boat, I noticed a swim deck and ladder, but I didn't see a place to attach a ski rope. :lol:

I gotta say, I got a ride on a formula fastec 38 something on our little lake. 90+ mph later and I wanted one. Wow, what a thrill. Maybe even more so was hearing those super chargers wind up. Thing that surprised me was how stable and rock solid it felt at that speed. It was fast but I never thought, whoa, this is scary. Never felt like it was pounding what was a rough lake that day.

Lovely boat; what attention to detail, they even painted some parts of the engine Volvo red!

I think Al Gore is going to get one to complement his private jet and new $9M 6500 sq foot home that uses 20 times the energy of a regular sized home. Nothing like controlling your carbon footprint.

Yeah, I woulda bought one that big too, but as soon as I launch it, I'm already half way across my lake!
