Good news from the Skater factory....
Went up there this past weekend to go pick up Predator. Had a few paint scuffs fixed and some new clear.....looks beautiful!
Anyway, Peter and the boys are busy, busy, busy!
It was really nice to see in a time when the boating biz is taking a huge hit, cause they are cranking!!! As always, it is great to sit down with Peter and Chris and talk boats.......I swear, I think they know every boat they have ever sold by owners name.
Pro1, your boat looks beautiful, they were well on their way. They also had a sweet little 30 with outboards almost done, a new 40 with Sterlings, and two other 388's. The new 46 with turbines in off the charts too.
I did sneak over to a certain 50' cat that was in for repairs. I have said before, I think they look great, interior and all, but what I saw on the bottom of that boat almost made me sick. What they use for the bottom of a so called "200" mph cat, I just could not believe...
No worries though, they experts are on top of it and it will be better than new when done, nice job guys.......
Just wanted to give Skater credit, and it's great to be part of such a great family.
