Sceptre or Tsunami whats the difference?
 
Can anyone answer that? Everyone I have talked to so far can't. They both look the same to me?

From what I can tell, sometime in the late 70's the name was changed from Tsunami to Sceptre, even though it is the same boat. Granted, there are minor differences inside, but they are both cuddy models with full-width windshields and look identical next to each other. I wonder if the name changed when ownership went from Potter to CSY? I have an '82 built by CSY and it's a Sceptre.

Thank's Mr.P is due to call. I'll let you know what he say's.
The problem is there is too much BS info out there. This site seem's solve a lot of the problems though.

Do NOT hold me to this but last time I spoke with Mr. P he said, I think, One of the names was trademarked by another firm and they had to change the name due to this. Please ask him though as I am only 80% sure.

I think the name changed to Sceptre in 1975 or 1976. I had a 1977 model and it was the Sceptre. We bought the boat new and I think the name had just changed within the last year or so. The 1977 was a Potter.

Just a guess but I thought the Tsunami was a walkaround.

Marc, I get a lot of inconsistancy about this. I asume it's basiclly the same boat, but there must be a reason for the two names. I still haven't heard back from Mr.P. I will let everyone know what he says if and when I hear back from him [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
