Hey Guys, Spoke to Pete yesterday. Told me as it sits now they have all the interior together and all the electronics for the boat. Told me boat would be done the end of August. Its still gonna go to Merc as they're making custom props for it. He said it will only be there one day. they would bring it there and then back home. Don't know how they're gonna do it in a day but thats what Pete said so its good for me. If it is another day or so thats ok by me. Gets me the boat by the beginning of September. Gives me a month to cruise around before Ill have to put it up for winter. As for the 12 inch setbacks thats not going to happen. He was concerned that being in the Northeast and its a bit rougher here he felt more comfortable not having the motors back so far. Only gonna be a few inches back plus the jackplates. Thought it would be easier on the transom even tho it was strengthened in the build. Gotta go with Pete on that. Shouldn't have an effect on performance. Chad was out to Skater the other day and took some pics of boat. Was pretty well covered up for rigging but if he doesn't put them up I will in a few days. My computer is acting up right now and can't post them. Things do change but right now thats the time line. We will see what happens.

Couple more pics that Chad took while visiting Everybody at Skater a few days ago. Pretty well covered up because of rigging going on.

That is a very beautiful Skater, love the dash, ausome piece of art.

Looking good Steve! :cheer: That inboard 30 in front and to the right of your boat is almost finished - Merc 700 engines with ASD7s. I might be going back with Rik in a few weeks to water test it.

Yea Dale love that combo. If I didn't like outboards so much I may have ended up in one like that. Its like your boat with less power right or is it widened.

Is there a build thread on that boat? Would be cool to see. . |

Steve, Can't wait to see the glass windshield attached on your boat. That would really be awesome. Will Skater cut the acrylic glass at the factory or is it precut from AeroMarine? . |
