Default 28' Skater Another Awesome Day in S. FL

Temp 70 degrees, Clear blue skies, Crystal clear blue water, Light winds and a NE 2' to 3' Swell. Max speed today in these conditions was 83mph. Not bad for a 28' Skater.
Videos taking with my phone. Feel bad for all you guys snowed in.

They are built by Mike Nass and Dave Bush Racing is the one who sells them. They fit the standard 300xs pan and also i have had custom air manifolds made from Mike Nass to ram air directly into the intake. The motor is dry as a bone and no more salt air getting to the block.

thanks. nice to know you don't have to change the pan and the addition of the intake helps keeps everything dry. why doesn't merc change their cowls??? would save them on the warranty end I would think?!?!?!
