Scott, everything is coming along great. We just got the 46' Skater back together. It was completely derigged after the Worlds and then had every square inch of the boat checked before repairing/replacing/repainting. I think it's better than new - at least it looks and runs that way. It's on the road to Miami now. When we get back, hope to start testing the new 44' MTI Extreme boat. It's been coming along great. Plan to debut it at Pickwick. Then, sometime after Pickwick, I plan to start testing the turbine. No hurry though. It has taken over two years to engineer and build this boat and I have no plans to rush the testing. Look forward to seeing you guys and your new projects soon. :drink:

We'll see. It replaces the 36' Skater that I used to run so I think it will be interesting to see/feel the comparison. :drink:

Should be a great boat. How much motor is out of the hatches?? Those 1500s are TALL. :evilb:

Surprisingly not much at all but we're still doing something a little different in this area. Primarily for function rather than hatch clearance though.

So maybe you have notched the hull bottom to fit the engines, sort of a built in tab with the oil pans dangling out the bottom of the sponsons. :D

Or a new blower system?
