1994/2010 Skater 32A Rehab
 

Here is the thread to share the rehab. This should be a fun project............ Even with some of the unexpected challenges. This boat is a blast to run! I can't wait until we get it back in the water this Spring!

Starting with some "before pictures":

More to come as we progress!

What kind of improvements are you planning? Nice Boat!

So far we are working with:

Skater- fuel tank & hull repair
Marine Tech Concepts- professional project management & rigging
R & R Racing- trailer rehab
Gressman Powersports- motor rebuild & upgrade
XT-Innovations- upholstery
Colabella Performance- drives rehab & repair performed correctly!
Chaz Z. & myself- stereo consultant/install

I think that's it............................. Oh yeah...... THE BANK! :eek:

Thanks. From bow to transom. Hull work, cockpit, motors rebuild, replace oil coolers/gauge sensors/etc., drives refreshed/repaired, transmissions repaired properly, stereo, intercom & trailer..................... Should be pretty much a new boat when we are finished.

Do you know what type of hull lay-up you have ?

Cool project!
Is Colabella back in his shop or working thru TnT?
(and the new seats are great!)

32A model. Nothing fancy in materials as far as I know.........
I think it's definately heavier than a new 32 model...

We are working with Craig's shop through Marine Tech. I like what they have done so far. He knows his stuff!
Can't wait to see the seats in the boat................!

Update!
 

Heard from Chris at Skater & things are going very well with the tank and hull repair!! Our ugly, bad news from a couple of weeks ago turned into not being too ugly or extremely bad. I really appreciate having them working on the boat. The old tired motors just got a new set of Brodix heads. Replaced the propshaft on one drive (that makes both now). It's good to see progress!
