There is NO trailer.

Vazzano used to own Trouble Maker. The 388 slingshot w/ big power and SSM V's. Had sweet a$$ paint. I remember he switched to ASD's and the boat was uncontrollable..

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

Good there easier to rig when there on dollies.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

I know that he owd GrafikEFX money for a long time and was not able to pay. I think that somebody paid the painter with the idea of finishing the boat but I see that didnt happen.

:drink: :D :drink:

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

I doubt i can afford it, but out of curiosity what woudl it cost to finish it like that with everything you have?
you could email me if youd like.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

When Richie swithed drives, he also went from 105 to 120 mph and that is where the boat started to chine walk really bad.

That has nothing to do with the drive units.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

Never said that it did. It was all out of shape because he didnt do the required bottom mods to make them work like the schott brothers did on Black Cloud.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

And 123mph was the number i heard...

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

if tis already set up for arnesons, why would u go with 6s?

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

This may sound like a stupid question to some, but, if the transom is still uncut, and the stringers have not yet been driled, how is it setup for ASD's vs 6's? Ive seen 6 drive boats w/ the tunnel extension also.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

Most likely the shape of the bottom. ie: more or less rocker built into the bottom etc.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

The bottom does not need anymore rocker in it for the Arneson than it does for the Speedmasters.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

Well, there ya have it........

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

There is DEFINATELY something different between this boats hull and the hull Skater builds for SSM 6's. I am not an expert but my sources are...

I called Skater direct and the conversation quickly began explaining my SSM 6's would not be a good combination for this boat since they (Skater) set it up for Arneson drives.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

The hull notch is very different. You CAN NOT run sixes without hull modification. It has a rocker in the hull. I spoke to Skater about this hull. It is a an expensive conversion. This thread and the boat are a waste of time. The Bank is nuts.

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal

Re: 40 Skater Going at US Marshall auction?? could be a good deal
 

it should be worth millions when they're done rigging it! aren't they the guys who couldn't figure out how to install a kpm water pump correctly? :eek:
