One 600. It ran as fast as his will.

And it is a nice boat regardless of power. I just thought the 700s were a bit too weak for a boat this big. But like Wrink said it's his boat his money...

Does Skater still have the molds that this was created from? Just curious what the back story is. When was it made?

Thanks, Guy in my area has the old Pier 57 Fountain race boat that I heard Skater made. What mold was that poured in?
