Default Sterling 1700 Turbo

What ever happened to these motors? Wasn't there a Skater that had a pair in them? Any other boats running them? Went to Sterling's website to get some specs like weight but could not find any real info.

Last time I inquired they were in a boat in Louisiana and I think they were having prop problems. Inquiring minds would like to know......

The Skater was dialed in and pulling hard, a while back.

Nothing on the weight.

They ran it to 165mph and it was still pulling hard.

Blume will know if they are going to be a LOTO.

I do know for a fact that Gus's Skater SLW 388 with the Sterling 1550HP++ will be at LOTO.

I would love to see both run.
