John Robinson raced a 36 triple outboard that was discussed quite a bit the past year in this forum. It was raced as Snakeman Racing and was very successful 2001-2003 winning I think at least two national championships.
It is in the process of becoming a pleasure boat.

There were maybe 4 boats built as raceboats.
-Team Abu Dahbi was built by Ocean Outboard and went to Europe / The Middle East.
- Ed Reily / Jim Robinson (Falcon/Snakeman) was the same boat cut open to quarter canopies, was last purchase by OkieTunnel here on the board I think. John Vanderstel re-rigged this boat and had it running near 120......
- Critical Lift ex Ocean Outboard was a way cut down 36.
- I also think there was a similar boat built to Critical Lift in Canada and that was the TARGET boat. I don't remember it actually ever racing though.
Those are the only 36 triple canopied boats I remember.

Thanks
Thanks for the info.
Which one was for sale on the old Skater website. It was on there for a long time, I think the contact person was Peter's brother ?
Was 1994 or 1995 the first year that they where made.
