Congratulations! Need my girlfriend to drive it for you at Boyne this year?!

AB From Windsor 04-12-2012 08:28 PM

That is another great looking Skater that you have added to your Skater collection over the years. The 48 Skater V with 700's, should give you a lot of trouble free cruising around Lake St. Clair.

Tborisch 04-12-2012 09:56 PM

It's in good hands with you Ron! With 700's it will be perfect!

Looking forward to seeing it again when your done!

Tom

Isn't that the one that had Sterling 1500's?
Or is this a New Skater V?

Just curious.

not new, did have some big motors in it. But it's Ron's now & if he can put in it what he wants! His boat, his $$!!! pretty simple logic!!!

It was just a question.
I Didn't need all of the explanation marks.
Thanks for the response. I agree. The new owner can put in whatever power he or she chooses.

Thanks for the simple logic response.

Congrats to the new owner. Beautiful Boat.

precisiondetails 04-16-2012 12:11 AM

Yes it did use to have the 1500 sterlings.
