That's Impressive :eek:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

I am glad to hear Vinny is running again. Those are some impressive numbers for the Power. The boat is definatly amazing. Skater and Vinny have produced a truely awsome piece of equipment. Can't wait to see that baby tearring up everyone at the poker runs to come. Watch out boys BAD is on its way to a Poker Run near you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

You rule.........
Whats going on with those valve covers? Are they painted or see through? Looks "bad" either way. :cool: :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Congrats to you both. Those are great numbers, I am really happy for Vinny. But knowing him, he is far from done dialing it in.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

I'm lovin the wrap around windsheild. add some split seats and ill take it.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

good to hear, was nice meeting you Vinny, the motors sound great nice an docile when idling out. It is a beautiful boat.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

I love the look of the boat and the new windshield.

What is the louvered plate that is mounted to the transom with the exhaust pipes? Is it a muffler?

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

JC,
Good job, very impressive #'s! :D

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Kick AZZ!!! Now get your butts to LOTO for the SHOOT OUT. Leave the boat at home, you can ride on Freedom US1. LOTO is a lot of fun. Poker Run hosted by Franky and Louie's starts 8-25-06. Shoot Out and goofing off for the balance of the weekend. You should try to get here by Thursday. :evilb: :D :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

That is insane for a true real pleasure boat. :eek: :D What does that boat comfortable cruise at 120? Please be careful! :cool:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!

On a side note, awesome looking boat!!! :eek:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Did you get to ride in it JC? That's a BEAUTIFUL boat.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Great looking boat and some BAD azz numbers to boot.
Congrats Vinny :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

cool looking paint,I see no water comming out the tail pipes,dry :eek: :drink:

Now turn it up!!!!

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Good lookin boat, Vinny. Congrats on the #'s :D

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Look a little closer, waters coming out of the pipes.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

It does look more like a stream of water coming from under the exhaust like my dry exhaust set up in the video below...

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Good job JC and nice article in Powerboat. :D

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

I saw the boat at the 1000 Islands poker run, a beautiful setup, nice to see this new Skater design. The first gen 36 Skater went 150 with 900SC so I bet this boat has a LOT more in it.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

That is the finest looking Skater I have ever seen!

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

i see it now :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Looks great. Can't wait to see it at Glen Cove poker run. Congrats Vinnie , Be safe.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Yes and it is unreal!!!The new canopy is real sweet. :cool: :cool:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

It was the first boat back that did all ther card stops.Extreme exhibit and My way were back first but didnt do the card stops. :cool:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

JC, It looks beautiful, as every boat Vinny builds. Very impressive speed. I don't know how Vinny gets his boats to run the speeds they do. Did you build the motors? Did you do all the set up for the PSI's? Whos valve covers are they?
I'm still waiting for your phone call.

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Yes,yes KE valve covers and i will call you tommorow Gino :drink: :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

My hats off to both of you guys, Skater and JC. I really like the new design with the wrap around windscreen, and it's obvious the new efficient bottom. Great competition for MTI who has been stealin some of the thunder on the speed side and Nortech on the design side. This is just another credit towards an engine builder who is involving himself with building some of the best custom power around. :cool:













Now send me my 20 bucks Jeff :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

I thought you said 10 bucks? :drink: Thanks Jeff :D

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

Sweet ride Thanks for the pics...

Nice Mills JC

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

JC, what kind of starters did you put in there? I'm running the rear mount Tiltons and going through them too often...
Thanks,

(and killer boat Vinnie!!!) :drink:

Re: New 40 Skater tested!!!!
 

With the shiftable crashboxes, it is a waste of time to use the starters with the extended snout that goes through the bellhousing spacer.They break often.We use the Powermaster 9500 starter that bolts on the block.They never give a problem.There also is an upgraded model that is big coin.I have no problem with the powermaster.
