Here's what some of the Skater Nation had to say about the golden anniversary celebration for Skater Powerboats at Lake of the Ozarks last week.

Congrats to Peter & Skater - I met him in Havasu ( by accident ) several years ago one morning at Desert Storm - he was sitting on a picnic table solo waiting for someone. We happened to walk by, I saw him, and asked if he was Peter Hledin and he smiled and said yes. Honestly it felt like meeting Ferdinand Porsche or Enzo Ferrari - the guy is a total legend. We chatted for a few minutes, told him about my 28 that I had at the time, got a picture, and that was that.
