Another great boat, looks great. Only the fortunate few can own such a boat. I like the wood, it gives the boat a sense of style and class, and it is not like every one else (catamarans and V-bottoms) out there on the water. Looks very upscale. I prefer the open top, but definitely see the merits of the hard top.

I just LOVE flat deck Skaters. They have the look of no-nonsense raceboats. OTOH I like hardtop 100mph+ boats, they just look safer. One of my favorite Skaters is Lick This, the 46' five place canopy boat. It may not be the fastest pleasure cat but it is certainly one of the, if not THE, safest boats Peter has ever built. And I think safety should be a higher priority than speed when it comes to these boats.

It's a 40ss, just like Teague's family cruiser. Total length with the bustle is about 44'.

I love the hold concept and the fact that Peter will design and build what ever your taste and pocket book can handle!!!
I like that the owner has his own taste,,just like many people have recommened a complete deck and windshield change on my hull!! The first time I saw a Skater with a F16 Canopys and the classic deck the hull looked like it was running 200 on the trailor!!
I like the race look over pleasure but would never knock a design I didn't like.Ask Tiger a little difference is nice!!
Great job Pete and crew on keeping it fresh.

Ok sure!! Mercury is the only packages I have seen on a dyno that run within a few HP of what there rated for without a crazy correction factor!! Can't say that about the strip down engines with dyno headers,, and no I have never run mercrusier. They do make 1350 on 93 with a year warranty most engine builders will not offer a warranty..
