The cash reward was certainly nice, but if Skater keeps it going (and Peter Hledin is a man of his word) being on the "Fastest Skater" trophy is a lot more meaningful.

The 488 Skater V is there also, with 1500's. You've got somecomp if he runs Eddie.

fountainfan, there a handful of V's maybe 7-8.

So you own a Skater V-bottom. Lucky man. Most impressive V-bottom ride I've ever had a 135 mph.

Good luck this weekend. Stay safe.

Matt, It's his client/friends boat. The same one you tested. Eddie rerigged and built 1200's+ for it. Owner had a 377 Talon and 43 Nor-Tech, now this sweet Skater.
