Hey so how did all the Skaters do at Desert Storm?

Gatorone: How'd the new boat do? Is the paint the same as your other 388?

Default Skater at havasu

We had a great time. Very fun run to the first card Stop. We laid back at the start in Group B then half way to the Springs we had some fun. Made all but the last stop due to Water in the Starboard Engine the result of an Intercooler burning up (Second time in two trips, same motor and new intercoolers this time). Need to find out why. Only had about 4 hours driving this boat but it sure put the fun back in boating. This boat is fun (first time owning a Cat after an Outlerlimits and Formula V's). Can't wait till the next time.

Did you install those fine mesh sea strainers specifically designed for intercoolers. They seem to fix the issues.

Curious copper or aluminum cores?

I have had lenthy discussions on this issue with Dustin
as well as Roger at PSI.
it is not the heat of the charger.
Do you have a picture?

Dont really mean to Hijack Tommaro44.
This info is good stuff.
