Can a 46 Skater be used for fishing??? Aparently so!! Jim Lee's Freedom US1 shows again she can do it all.
Hauls 6 people and luggage, has a cuddy with a lounge and head, runs 150 in the flats and as fast as nessesary in the rough stuff. Last week while ripping accross the Alantic at a high rate of speed, I spied a dark object headed right for me. Using my best "cat like" reflexes I was able to swat in down before it hit me. Lo and behold the flying cat had captured a flying fish proving once again that a Skater is always up to the task at hand.

never saw these flying fish before! How high or how long can they fly?

We just came back from a carribean cruise and would watch from our balcony the flying fish "flying" out of the water away from the bow of our ship. Their wings make the sound of a rubber band propeller airplane as they fly.
It's unbelievable how far they would continue flying 20- 30 ft or more.

FREEDOM US1

Man I tell you, That was a fantastic trip!!!!! We had a blast and the Skater and crew loved to bash through the big water. Thanks Eric for building the motors that get Freedom US1 to all the fun spots!!!

That leg is our guide Richard from the Bahamas. First ride on a Skater!!!! After the first mile or two of thinking WTF are we doing he loved it. He insisted riding with us back to America!!
