Suggs looking really great! I love your tower. It's so minimal. And is that a tow point/nav light combo on top?! Awesome!!

Okie or others....Please recommend your products. I have some serious cleaning and shining to do. I bouht some Exquisite to clean and shine the interior....How did you clean and buff the exterior that well? Sweet! Same color scheme as my old 89 Comp...love it. Want my 2000 Legacy to shine like that!

Whoops I thought they started in 84! Just noticed a BEAST was made in 82 so I need to edit this!! POST THEM UP! WE ALL GOT THE SAME HULL!!

Hold up now...I thought the rider DID have a different hull.....?

Wet sand first then hit it with 3M Super Duty Compound, 3M Finesse-It and 3M Perfect-It, then wax. That will get it shining nice if it is pretty oxidized. Any pics of what it looks like right now?

Really nice boats and pic's, guys! After seeing those, I know my next supra will be at least a sunsport!

[csuggs]

All the pics of these Sunsports look really great! I'll go ahead and add a couple recent pics from in the water about a month ago.
Also - someone on this thread was talking about the Sunsport hull vs the Rider hull. There are slight differences according to a Rider hull a looked at just last week. The Rider is a bit flatter on the bottom at the stern with NO chines. Also the Rider has 3 fins whereas the Sunsport has 2 fins. There may also be other subtle differences.

WOW! She's hot! Looks like she just rolled off the line, Ilove the way the graphics fade back into the hull color! Very nice indeed!
