I was coming back from buying a Checkmate Mx 14, and planned to drop it in to run on Lake Monroe. It looked a little small next to the Callan boat. They had been testing in Monroe earlier that day. Nice guys, they let Debbie onboard to check out the cockpit. |
The 388 Skater should be capable of close to 200. If it is at 174 now and it has 1200's. The 40 Skater Bad is around the same speed. These are boats that were recently built by Skater with a lot less hp. The new 46's that are due out should be faster.

Bill should switch to the Chief twin turbo motors in Golddigger, Tommy has those motors dialed in and are lasting, unlike the big power KE's

Why not drop some "regular motors"- 1075, 1200, 1500 etc- in it to see what it'll do?

It is a shame to see such a beautiful boat be a flop so far and would love to see it run 217MPH tomorrow, however if it sits for another few months or years for that matter it is all the same to me. How bout you give me you cell phone number so every time it goes in the water i can call you and make sure YOU know its not a "Trailer queen". I have been in the boat over 160 plus It has been in the water many times. I guess it my fault for not coming on here every time it in the water and telling you.. because im sure the owner is real concerned that you think it is a failure |

174 with 1200's? Seems a bit fast for that power. |
That really hurts Mike's feelins coming from someone with a souped up fishin boat with eggbeater hangin off the back.:p
