After 35+ years of building Hi-Performance Catamaran's Peter Hledin is building a personal boat for himself. It will have all the bells and whistles he has learned through the years building them for other people. It will be an amazing work of art. Motors By Sterling and Paint by Taod and the Special SLW.

The above sounds like a great company boat add some Arnesons for drives and let Steve at Skater paint the boat.
Note: I know TAOD has the reputation and ability---but that is not the idea---it would be like building an anniversary boat for someone and trying to use all the in house builders strengths to highlight their years of accomplishments.
Hence, the use of Steve will reflect more on the complete in house aspects of building a Skater ie...100% Skater product right down to the trailer
. In my limited opinion the painting at Skater is the most underrated aspect of the business. I love all the in house paint schemes and designs classy and no doubt eye catching.Hope to see what this boat looks like and a list of features which were done by the owner on a specification sheet. Who knows maybe a potential future customer might want some of those innovative ideas
.Photos would be nice if any insiders are reading.
