That is a steal.Somebody buy that and get it off the market.

DirtyMoney 08-13-2008 05:34 PM

He must be selling now so he doesn't have to face any of the guys down in Destin.

In an email to me, Jim stated he will not be making Destin, getting reddy for LOTO..

RunninHotRacing163.1 08-13-2008 05:52 PM

Boat runs 140+mph with low boost .. She'll never make the shootout :ernaehrung004:

WeaponX 08-13-2008 08:07 PM

I think it's a real nice boat for the price Rob. The motors are very nice.

Everybody on this site should try to get Jim back on here it's real boring with out him on here.

I'm fairly sure it will make the Shootout.....may even break 114mph in the mile:evilb:

Would you like to take me up on that wager:grinser010:

Pro1 08-13-2008 08:23 PM

Is that the same boat in NJ was a 1992 40 skater?

Which one?? And how much.:drink:

chromecat 08-13-2008 08:28 PM

Isn't that also the boat the was in az or somewhere on the west coast? and if I remember right, the controls and cables are in the open.

Same boat but the rigging is being fixed along with a bunch of other stuff.

dazzright81 08-13-2008 08:30 PM

A Skater a Turd, come on the boat is the most solid, best handling Cat I've been in, I've worked my rear off on adding glitter to it, Where are the moderators now, I paid my money on this ad just like everyone else here, but making comments on such a nice Skater is too much, I have been cool on here for quite some time now, and have had people posting impersonating me just to cause trouble, like the Chris Sunkin comments, damn sure was'nt me, fact. If you guys want to see how nice a boat it is just come to the shootout, I'll take you for a spin, If your not impressed, you weekend drinks are on me. I wanted to make Destin, but new owner of my Nortech is picking up boat tomorrow here in LOTO, Rob try to cool it please, Weapon you have a bet on that 114mph number, If I could get you on the sticks we'll turn some heads, and ears, motors are bad ass, Best I've owned, and yes Jass I'll take that bet that it breaks 114mph in the shootout, how much$ you got, Jim

I bet the 400.00 Jim owes me that he will never run the Shoot Out in that boat..If he does, by some miricle, he can owe you the chump change:rolleyes:

I always check everything before I take a new boat out:readinghelp:

seafordguy 08-14-2008 07:10 AM

Is this guy for real? I mean does he actually own a skater?

Also - was he the one selling this 50V Nor-Tech??

http://www.offshoreonlyclassifieds.c...o21991-en.html

I swear I remember seeing the contact info say Jim Darr? Did he actually sell that boat? For a while the price was 150k??

Not that I could have bought the boat I was just curious if it was a REAL boat or just some pictures he got online....

It was an older style 50, that needed some finish work at a good price for someone who wanted a large boat inexpensively. He had an 04 50 as well, but needed tlc, when I saw it, supposededly both are sold hence the Skater. The Skater he bought cheap, and now has to fix:evilb:....ah never mind...I'll let someone else finish this..lets have some fun today with this thread:food-smiley-007::grinser010:

If anthony gets it all done he will run it...but none of that makes up for all the crap Jim has pulled on people...time wasted, email threats etc etc etc.
