What years were 32b's made
And what years were half canopys
|
I believe the 32B first showed up around 1998 or 1999 and they were most popular through the early 2000s. I don't believe I have seen one with a standard deck after 2010 but I believe their have been a few flat deck boats with the 32B bottom. I assume skater still has the molds and would build a new one today if someone was interested but it seems most either go for the 30 / 318 with outboards or move up to a 36 and bigger boats for inboards. As far as the half canopy's my educated guess is that was an option on all of them so it wasn't really year specific.
I think it would be really cool to know production numbers for skaters, compared to 28's and 36's I don't think the 32 or 32B was nearly as popular. |

good to know and for what its worth your 388 is super cool!
Thank you!!! Took a lot of time and effort but it was definitely worth it. |
I seen 1987 models for sale before (32) but I'm assuming they were not B models???

Until the Team Douglas boat, there was the A model which performed better with o/b power vs the i/o which deemed the creation of the B

Skater no longer builds the 32B, even if somebody wanted one. The mold was "retired" and put out back at least 3-4 years ago. And for those wondering about production numbers, I'm certain they've built/sold more 28s than any other model. For example, the last 28 I owned was a 2007 that was production #124. The 2009 36 I currently own is only #75, and the 36 was one of their most popular inboard models that came out in '96. It was the next model released after the 28, which was released in '94. Since 2007, I think they've only built a total of 12-15 28s though - which would put the total number of 28s built right around 140. Sales of the 28 really fell off after the introduction of the 30 in 2005. Interesting note, my old 30, production #1, was the only 2005 30 ever built. The next 30 built/sold (production #2) was a 2007, there is no model year 2006 30.
