I Would Have To Say After Doing Research On The Skater 24' And I Own A 24 Superboat That The Super Is A Lot More Forgiving.....

i know of a good 28 for sale near me, it's actually a good friend of mine with it... reliable, sips fuel... has twin 2005 250XS optimax motors on it with 45 hours on them... boat peaks out at 103-104mph

but even tho it's a friend, i still can't afford it!!

i have since bought that 24 superboat since i started this thread, but i am still looking to step up from it and get something either same size and faster, or a a little bigger. the 68ish mph that my boat tops out at just doesn't cut it anymore, lol.... can get used to speed way too quickly, i guess that's what can get u in trouble

so now i'm all over looking for skaters again or anything else that catches my eye that can be a near 80 mph or more boat safely in some bay chop...
