There is nothing Merc on that race boat.

According to the website, chief engines and arnesons.

That's what I saw

They are 850 Chiefs! Even better motor!!

I was at LCM this past weekend and i'm pretty sure that the 39 had #6 outdrives not arneson...I will be there this weekend or next weekend and double check on that maybe get some pictures

Chuck, the orange 39 does have 6s... I would love to see a couple more pics.... if you dont mind! I wont be out there until October or November. Thx

Orange one does have 6's and 1075's according to the web site.

So does the red one.....

The red one isn't the same design as the orange one. You want the orange one of the two. :cool:

orange = :drool:

MdMark, Skater built them. The Skater/Baja deal never went thru. Skater initially did the design for Baja. Baja dropped the ball.

That will be no problem...I'll be there either this weekend or next weekend. Don't know for sure but it will be soon i'll take a bunch of pic's to let everyone check out. It is a sweet ride from what i saw....

gawd...those are sweet boats. The red one does have better cockpit IMO. Stand up seats. More refined cockpit. Something about the orange cockpit just looks like a mock up or something.

Well rik...how did the boat preform????

Definitely out of the two the red boat is more of your pleasure boat that will compete with outerlimits and cig. Getting into the orange boat you are looking at a ton of speed like in a cat but V bottom set-up. So of course the red boat will have the more refined cockpit etc...Red boat like an ol, luxury and power...orange boat all power and light weight therefore less luxuerious.

Someone go to LOTO this weekend and watch for me.

I got a compliment and that is saying a LOT!

we watched it test a bunch yesterday, looked very good running.....

The orange one is WAY nicer than the red one IMO. Six person cockpit, small cabin, dual helm, full stagger, wind protection, merc power, 6's, etc. The only thing it does not have is a rubrail. Better complete package.

I would love to see one with the one-piece wrap windshield. I think that would look killer! Anyone know if they have made any?

Where are your PICS???? :D

One with a one piece windshield was just ordered and will sport absolute monster power in 08.... :cool: complete silliness. ....no it isnt mine

If the bottom's are the same...I could struggle with the red one

The new race canopy Skater CRUSHED in LOTO. What a sweet boat. :cool:

What does "Crushed" mean?

ran away from the vees and ran with the cats....

Awesome :cool:

Well then, for a boat with Arneson's on it, that's not bad.

Any pictures of it?

i have some running shots on my camera still, but this is in the pits...

:ernaehrung004:

Sean, Thanks any shots of the bottom and drives like this? Looks like the Skater is setting the bar high again. The first was great that one must be awesome.Attachment 301308

Get any picture's of the engine Bay.

Hope you don't mind me rotating your photo.

This is the best I could do. We were too far from the crane when they put it in the water.
