Agreed no different than factoring the cost & or time commitment required to get ones boat to & from the OEM (Skater or other).
I chose to have Skater do my ILMOR Indy drive upgrade for 2 reasons. 1) it had never been attempted before know one knows the boat like Skater does. 2) ILMOR is also located in Michigan so they worked thru the project together. The end result was not cheap but it was a 100% success! |

When you live where you have a short season I would think turn-around time would be the most important factor. I would hate to be the guy that misses a season because of a slow builder or refresh.

We know Skater does an excellent job building boats as well as updating them BUT that's not to say that there are not other talented individuals / companies out there capable of the same quality of of work. No different than having ones tanks done there are options. Some may be driven by price, others location even turn around time. All relevant factors!
Thats correct, we do the polycarbonate windshield and base for 12k ,the bustle extension is 10k have molds for both. The windshield, cockpit work and bustle tunnel extension and step complete from skater is 90-100k, we also do the pleasure canopy retrofit to flat deck.We did a complete retrofit on a classic 40, removed rub rail, glassed together, no seam,tunnel extension, flat deck retro on canopies,added wrap around windshield, bustle extension. Looks like a new boat, total custom skater |
