Looking for an older 24 or 28 Skater
 

Im seriously in the market for an older outboard Skater. 24 or 28 in excellent condition. Cash buyer, I'm not in need of financing. Thanks.

Buy a 28 extra 4' is night and day difference in big water!

If you're in the market for either, get the 28. You will NOT regret it. I'd love to have a 28, there wasn't any for sale that were setup as nice as mine and in my price range when I purchased or I would have gotten a 28. They don't even feel like the same boat.

28 skater raceboat
 

our skater 28 is in the classifieds no 43361....interested ???

I ended up purchasing a 32 with 300x's. Thanks for the help everyone.

Which one did you buy? Congrats.

I ended up buying the Lip Service boat. Formerly the race boat High Risk. Guardado Marine did a great job on the repair and conversion to a pleasure boat. John Vanderstel rigged the boat with the 300x's and PPI installed the interior. I'm redoing the graphics. Same look, just changing it up a bit. Lowers had some pitting on the prop shafts. Not bad, but while there out I am having new shafts installed, seals, and impellers. Then there getting polished. I put on a new rub rail, powder coated the battery boxes and cup holders and installed a new stereo. Hope to take it out in the next few weeks and try it out. Rick Felsen, the original owner lives on Long Island and is looking forward to seeing it. He raced it from 1988-2003.

That boat was TEAM SKATER before Rick had it,it was owned by the late Kevin Brown...RIP

I remember it well and probably have some photos of it racing in its day. Have fun let us know how it runs with the 300 X's.

Will do, I remember Rick Felsen telling me he bought it from Kevin Brown after he saw how fast it was in the rough. I plan to start a thread and post some pictures once I get everything done to it. I'm anxious to see Mr. Felsen run it. I'm hoping to pick up some pointers. I bought a bunch of DVDs from Freeze Frame and luckily there is some good footage of the boat racing.

My old 24' is for sale on scream and cry

You will not go wrong with those guy's doing the re-do.......what are your props and set up ?

$35k! Hard deal to beat!

That 32 was a light one, used to work on it when it was P-32, Team Skater

Really, thats awesome. I'm just about ready to pull it out and see how she goes. I just got the Sportmaster lowers back. New shafts, seals, and we added the 4 seal billet shift perch's and the vent kits. That should take care of any water getting in. Got a great deal on getting them polished. I should be able to post some pictures next week hopefully.

Did you get the Lakeside vent kits? I did all the same to my lowers and still had issues until I drilled a small hole in the top of the tube mounted in the cowling. Did not make sense to me to have it sealed tight?
Have had no issues since. Plus all stern drive bottles are vented.

I had the lakeside vent kits, the Taylor billet carriers, still problems........Shaun Torrente Fixed them, still use the lakeside billet shift shaft and the Taylor billet carrier, just modified them both,and removed the vent tube and tank.......No More Problems!!

Interesting, I'll watch the oil and if I still have a problem, I'll drill a vent hole in the expansion chambers and see how that works.
