Anybody know this boat/owner. It showed up here in Port Charlotte on the Myakka
River a few days ago. It is a 32 Skater, 1/4 canopy boat, sounds like big power.

Sorry for the poor photo quality, I took these pictures at just over 1/2 mile, just beyond the reach of the 200mm lens.

So it turns out I know the boat, I know where he purchased it, and I know the guy...small world.

2002 32 Skater, twin canopies, T/572cid SC 800, SSM#6, CMI big tubes

Purchased from my old race shop in NJ, which is now Trenton Marine of Toms River.

not a big 32' fan (big skater fan). but you throw out the 800hp w/6's on a river and i'm in. why have a stv anyway. i had a heck of a time on a 32 with 850's and 6's about 5 years ago on a river. i think the only thing that was even close to us was a few stv's to about 4500 rpm. we passed a cop at about 3200 rpm (55mph speed limit) around 75-80 ish. he was cool about it. what a fun day that was.
