Eliminator is building some nice small/mid sized models these days!

As far as new goes, this is probably the most bang for your buck that you'll get.

Liberator 30

Where`s the pricing?

$250K new probably considered "entry level" in which case I would suggest a new 28 Skater, Eliminator has some good options, Nordic, and Howard has some good options as well. I think the red dragon 36 Spectre with 700's and #6 drives is good deal at around $150K.

The fatcat dw28 with 300Rs would have been it, but I’m not sure who builds them now or if they made very many.

Unfortunately, you're not even close to getting a new 28 Skater for $250k - not one with engines already on it anyways.

Been keeping my eye out for a 30 or 32 spectre/skater. Looking for outboards or maybe even convert I/o but rather something that is already setup. The advertised market is slim pickings and the prices are still minimum 150k for a 20 year old boat with outboards. Hopefully can find something decent in the near future

I'm not sure if the Texas owner of Dale Rayzor's ex. 2004 Skater 30 Prototype is still loving the boat. After three seasons he might want to get another Skater having come from a Skater 36 that he traded with Dale. That 36 is an I/O so he might have realized outboards are not for him. That 30 might be $250k plus, but I find it worth every penny, it's simply stunning. Maybe reach out and see about its status?
