Thumbs up Attention!!!Outboard Skaters

Anyone who owns an outboard Skater.....If you want to go Fast and Reliable.....go to STR Racing. Shaun Torrente!! I have owned several performance boats over the past 24 yrs.I have been to several shops/ boat mechanics,Never have I been so pleased with a shop than I have with STR Racing!!! Shaun has done things to my motors and drives that No one ever even mentioned! Not only did he fix my drive problems,he has re rigged my Skater the Right Way!! He has completed a 2 page list of "to do" items I gave him and several engine Mods,all in TWO weeks.He has done more in two weeks than my previous shop did in a YEAR!! When I took my Skater to him it ran 105.....Now it runs 115 with 300XS. I have enjoyed working with him so much I just kept expanding the list What better person to work on a Skater than a Fellow 28 Skater Owner!! I Highly Recommend Shaun Torrente of STR Racing!!!!!

Bill, no my boat was at the river ranch run last weekend in Fl. He sent me pics of the GPS and another friend was in the boat to witness it. Shaun has sent me pictures daily of the work completed.......Never have had Any Shop do that before!!

So the obvious question, at least to me, is how the heck do I get in touch with him, I've tried google etc but can't find anything but his racing blog. Does he have a website etc? I've heard good things about his motors and would like to learn more but hate to have to call him and talk his ear off for the common questions like what does he do other than motor magic, not that I don't believe in the blue smoke but...
