I know there's an OSO member with a Sonic 28 for sale... Might be worth a look. I've never been on a twin BB Sonic 28.

OK,
Here's "impulsive"s boat. You should PM him for info...
Business Opportunity forces sale.1995 Sonic 28ss. New 502's w/60hrs in excellent condition $42k
Seems to be priced pretty agressively.
The 28 sonic is a bit shorter than the Pantera.. by about 2-2.5'.
Sonics are put together pretty well. The only thing I don't like is that walk around really cuts into interior space.
Here's a pic of a friend's 26 Sonic interior.

Tim G. - The length difference between a 28 sonic and a 28 pantera is 2-2.5 feet? impulsives boat sounds a little too rough with big gashes in the side.
sonic 31ss - I want to stay with stock mercruiser power for reliability and maintenance.

Tim,
I had a condo on Three Island Blvd. in the 90's, last floor facing south on one of the three towers around the turning basin. A lot of blue hairs in that complex, they were not to crazy about us parking the Corvette in the "Porte Cachere" and tipping the doorman.
One December they sent me a notice to send them a list of potential people that were going to use my condo during the winter. I sent them the Montreal phone-book they left me alone after that.

Sonic doesn't make the 28 any more, and it doesn't surprise me.
Its to bad that twins are a must because I think you would be impressed with the way a 288 Sunsation runs in the rough. Now I haven't played with mine in the ocean, but run Lake Ontario lots and that water can get really rough and unpredictable. I push mine hard and other boaters are surprized to see only one outdrive on the back after we've gone in a poker run or fun run.
Does Apache make a 28 anymore? Or do you have to find one 10 years old?
