The old Bacadi Silver ran around 200 many years ago, so I have no doubt that with enough power a 36 race-prepped Skater could run at those speeds. It just takes some big azz power, money, and giant balls!

Specificly identifying 224mph only points to one boat. Any other boat running even close would have had a trickle effect that would have blown wide open in a short time for everyone to hear no matter how hard it attempted to be kept secret. Even pleasure boats hitting the 190-200mph mark make news here.

I would harbour a guess that their web designer has no idea of their mistake or of the performance boating world for that matter.... seen a pic of the pointy boat MY WAY/224mph and unfortunately identified it as a Skater ( 2+2=7)
