I too want to know where to buy the pump that is effortless to spin?

I personally have never been a boat with hyd. steering that will turn as easy as standard cable steering?

none the less mine is 100 times worse than every other but.............

what kind of pumps are you guys running?

AGRESSOR, I think a single 32' would be awesome. I do agree that docking would be tougher than a twin and a little tougher than a 288 if the current kicks up but I imagine nothing that you couldn't handle or get used to with a few hours under your belt.

My Hynautic system is plumbed into my stock power steering pump.

[ I'd also be willing to say that the single engine 32 Dom would be faster with the same power as the 288. [/B]

Really?? How come?? I am not a big Sunsation follower, so looking for an education. I know that they just made the 288 hull better, but I know nothing about the 32, so why would it be faster??

Thanks! :)

I am definetly not a Sunsation expert, but was told that by an ex owner of a 32 that ran 79 and some change (gps) with a single HP500.
I think it had something to do with the 32 spanning the waves better that a shorter boat.

I am not trying to be a wise arse... ;) but for the most part, a larger offshore will be faster then a smaller offshore in "rough" conditions, especially when you get rough enough to be spanning waves.

Again, I am not saying you are wrong at all, just looking for the "how come" :winker:

I was also told that if a 288 and a 32 Dominator were rigged the same way the Dominator would be faster.
I was always curious as to why they don't install twins in the 288 and they said the 32 would still beat it.
Must have something to do with how the 32 carries the hull across the water. I am talking about the old 288 hull design. I don't know too much about the new hull. :confused1

What do you guys think of a Vortech equipped 496HO in a 32 single???? possible extention box? it'll save $$$ compared to a 525 or 600 :confused:

What about the new Innovation motor, I belive it is putting out 500+ ponies and naturally aspirated, based on the 496. If nobody pipes up with any info on that motor, I know Julie at Throttle Up knows about it...
