Default 36ft Skater with OBs?

Has it ever been done? I always loved the old 32 with triple v8 Evinrudes? How fast did that run?

36ft Skater with quad 300xs?

Your thoughts?

Really nice resto!


With that said, I would never consider OB's on a boat this size.

I think Crtical lift had the kilo at one point in the low-mid 120's. Im not positive though.

I far as I can tell from talking to Pete and others, a 36 skater quad outboard (Mercury 2.5's) is a first. Even though to some it doesnt make sense, to an outboard appreciator like me this is a dream boat.
Plus finding a guy like Glassdave to make it all happen has been fantastic
I'm not sure how fast it will be. It's sure going to be fun dialing it in though!

I have a poster of the boat with the speed on the back. I will grab a pic of it. Definitely a cool piece. I believe Target popped Critical Lift to make "their" line of boats.
