Skater can't build vee bottoms. They all go back... every vee bottom they build tries to kill everybody in it anything over 130mph. If you want a skater, buy a cat. If you want a vee bottom, buy a fountain.

He owned one of the few prior Skater Vee's and has talked about how poor it was to handle at high speeds (beautiful boat though).

Ya and that boat was originally built for Cigarette with a canopy and Johnny T had already said he would never get back in it I believe. It was built to go after the v bottom record.

Skaters V bottoms have done quite well on the race course the 399 to be exact.
