I've got three of the old school at the lake house. Very nice.

Hey Guys -

I have winter plans for my recently purchased 28. See thread with pictures here ...

http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...28-skater.html

After catching the performance boat fever in middle school during the 1980's (my dad owned a Hydrostream Vasseret), I went to high school, college, etc... and kind of grew up. First boat I purchased was a STV Euro, then an Allison Grandsport, American Offshore, Spectre 30, Allison Grandsport, Talon 22 w/ twins, and now a 28 Skater.

Plans for the 28 this winter are new props - have already emailed and ordered from Dave Dewald. I am also planning on hauling boat to Valley Motorsports in MN for new gauges (Livorsi Monsters), powder coat the M & M controls, new carpet, paint touch up, and a few other things. Basically, I just want to clean it up and make it look new.

I cannot wait until Spring !!!!!!!

Thanks to Dale Rayzor & Double Rigged (Ron) for answering my questions.

SkaterJim - your paint job is incredible.

Thought since some you guys are not boating any more I would provide some entertainment.
