It was many , many years ago I started a quest to own a skater . back then it was a 21 then a 24 on to 28 and never could afford to own one . Bought my 32 for 23 k without power ona very nice rust free trailer and in 08 that was a deal . Now I see a could have bought a 40 for around that number . As soon as this boat is done going shopping for a 40 without power ( never selling my 32 )

Nice starter boat Larry! It looks like you have amazing technical skills to make that beast better than new...I missed a nice 88 32 Classic on a trailer with new interior with a pair of 300x low hour motors for 36K last year..it sold the day before I was going to look at it and probably buy it!!! What a no brainer 2 300x worth 20K...trailer 3K...13K for a 32 hull...Oh well.... Al

Soundes like a good deal , plent more avail on the cheap . This is my first Skater , been boating for 30 years , my last race boat was this boat , a 24 BRT , 550 hp , Imco ext box ( 3 inch raise ) 2 inch shortie , 3 man seat . This boat ran through anywater and drove more like 28 + than a 24 . Ran 80 all day long on GPs with 550 Natural . Boat is now in Dallis area and can be seen on Lake Lewisville . My first race was with Toasty as co-pilot , that was a great time . I bought it as bare hull and everything you see I did including glassed in NACA scoops
Before the Brt I ran Checkmates , at the time I thought they were great ( how little did I know ) they werent built mush better than a Bayliner . Still always dreaming of a Skater of any size .
