thoughts on 31 sonic
Well I ran across a 31 ft sonic ss/sp it's a 1994 model very clean, with a triple axle alum. trailer that is about 5 years old, my question is what kind of speed would you get out of this rig with twin 502's, and what is a low and a high price to pay, was thinking about this because they will take my boat in on trade so lets hear what do you think?

Derek, man you know I am a Baja dude, just looking, thats half the fun, I would love to have that outlaw of yours, I guess I need to get off my butt and sell my boat, most dealers won't give you crap for trade in, but this guy was going to give me a really good
trade in value on my boat!

the boat is worth 50-70 depending on the rigg. the 502's are a plus does it have air? alot of them do including mine....its great when its hot! I think on average they bring about 60 on a trailer but the market stinks right now, you should get a good deal. I guessing the boat will run 70ish.....I love mine!!!!

I would think it should run mid 70's and price is totally dependant on condition and desperation to sell. 50 to 70K sound like a good range. And if you're a Baja dude, you will be very impressed with the Sonic. I had 2 '96 Bajas and am very happy with the move up to a Sonic.

Hey thanks, listen to this, I just found another Sonic not far from were I live, and it is a 1995 with twin 502 efi's and it has blackhawk drives on it, I know these drives were good on step hulls and cat's but what about a Sonic, ever hear of this are did someone install those drives with the full hyd steering?
