Rik,
I was talking to a guy about a 30' Skater inboard today. He was talking about wanting twin 525EFI Mercury's and Arneson drives. Called Pete and he said a 525/Bravo would run around 115mph, What do you think about a possible project like this and the speeds? Here's a few picture's of a 30'...... |
It should reach 125 to 130 mph with the 525's. It would not need an engine hatch as the engines would be nice and low. If the owner gets the itch a Whipple kit would put this thing into the high 150's if wanted.

The 30' skater with whippled 525s and arnesons at 150mph is my dream boat... i could NOT think of a better setup. But as long as we're dreamin, a 388 would fit nicely in the shop too.. |

Think about this...............a 30' or 32' Skater inboard with Mercury 700SCI's and Arneson drives, 150 to 160mph. That would be a fun little boat. |
Those are pretty good speeds with just 700s, how much faster is the boat with arnesons compared to #6s???
