Anybody know this boat?

This boat is on the Howard Stern show web page dated 9-2-08. I believe this is off the Jersey shore. Anyway I thought I should pass this along. Dave

40' Skater I believe. Does 198 or something? It has fresh paint now, but it's been around for a long time. Ron Polli did a nice write up on it in extreme boating a few years back.

I believe we saw that boat three years ago in Key West complete with the flames, hot roding in front of the Pier area, it was very cool

Mike is very methodical. It has been in R&D for a couple of years and is now in the process of construction. It will have almost double the HP of the current Jet Set so.........
