Why dont you ask Motely Crew if they think their Skater canopy is junk ! They were involved in a rollover on wed. without injury, and Im sure both Ron and Scott would be happy to respond ! What was the last Skater you were in to be able to make that statement ? Mike

FastBoats.com went over testing also on wed. and the boat did excellent.

Hey Front Seat Driver,you are clueless.Kevin Brown was in a quarter canopy 32 Skater and these unfortunate deaths were in a fully enclosed canopy.I am not going to comment on the canopy systems but if you called Peter at Skater or Randy Scism and told them you are a super engineer and you can solve all of the canopy failures I am sure they would listen,also why you are at it why dont you call Obama and fix all of the econonomic problems we are having that would really be great.:angry-smiley-038:

First post in two years. What rock have you been hiding under? My suggestion would be to go back.

catamarans were designed to run flat waters period. they should team up with the unlimited hydros. and motley crew did a easy role over not like thunder.tommy gentry rolled over and wound up in a coma for two years before he died.why do you think they call them SKATERS!!! there air intrapped **** boxs!!!!!

DareDevil 11-15-2011 09:54 PM

Wow, did your financing go south on one back when ???

i think ctas can run in any water..the problem is that people dont seem to find theyr own limits in a boat...no matter if cat or V !!!

SO, what boat do u race..OH, have .. if any !??? :party-smiley-004:
