What is the real deal with these set up for pleasure? I know the race boats are the fastest but would like some info on the pleasure set up w/ full cabin from those in the know....

Speeds with 1075s? 850s?

Are they better or comparable to the Cig and OL? Rough conditions? Cabin size?

Any info would be great! Thanks...

Masher44,

Here is the thread of the one Parnell tested.

Hope that helps

Thanks! How many were made? Are the F 16 style windscreens worth a damn?

It will run circles around a Top Gun with the same power in any type of water.... I think the first boat ran 104-106 MPH with 525s.

Very, Very good running boat.

This should sum it up pretty good... Its a Skater.

one sick piece. they do nothing but quaulity work at skater.it would have put baja near the top if they would have stuck to it, they need it, skaters still #1

I thought first boat, which was the baja/skater had 1,000's in it, which boat had 525's, Are you sure a full pleasure with cabin 399 went 104-106mph with stock 525's, that would be unheard of for a 40' pleasure vee/

I think he's refering to the race boat. The only Skater pleasure boat made is the one at LCM. I believe a second is in production though.

Your right it couldnt have been a pleasure boat, had to have been a race boat.

I think they have built 2 pleasure boats, including the baja one.

one was built for scot conrad also.
