The first Verado outboard-powered Skater catamaran is on the water!

Looks great

I always liked that boat, just not the triples.

.

103 MPH top end is very respectable, with more speed to come as they finalize the setup.


Please keep us posted with performance numbers

I thought that boat ran 100 with twin 300xs...hopefully after break in and some big cleavers it will turn bigger numbers

The current top speed with twin 400s matches what Bruggemann and company were able to achieve in the cat with triple 300s. They were definitely 300X outboard as opposed to 300XS outboards ... Bruggemann and I spent a few minutes discussing the displacement, horsepower and torque differences.

Thank you for the clarification Matt and I always enjoy your reports and information on so many exciting things within the industry. This boat in particular has had a very unique past as I believe it came from the skater factory with twin 300xs and was then converted to the triple 300x setup that they tested before the switch to the 400s.

The boat was actually for sale last year, it will be great to see what type of speeds they can get out of it with the 400s after some more testing.

Correct it ran 101 with twin 300xs when new. GPS pic is on another west coast forum.

That turned out nice!

So it was 101 with twin 300xs, 103 with triple 300x and 103 with twin 400 ?
