This is an awesome 28 Skater

that 28 is the one that got all banked up in a towing accident then got a big beautiful azz re-rig isn't it? it's for sale!

how extensive was the damage? Any pics?

scream and fly had a thread with all the info...http://www.screamandfly.com/showthre...ghlight=skater a lot of pics are gone now though

yes that is the boat. It was redone down here and sold by the owner that had redone it to someone in Miami who has had the boat for about 2yrs or so. There was a big thread on S&F about the accident and rework. I believe all the work was done down here and not at Skater. Maybe the original work in 2008 but not sure about that. I saw the boat in person 4yrs ago just after the rework.
The interior was done by Mike at Fineline.

...I found his build pics that are no longer being shown , but not sure if owner wants it publicized


repairs looked major...but, everything is fixable...

The pics show Skater fiberglass being grinded, made me cringe, but I'd still buy it if I was a Skater bro
