Boat has been through a lot.

How many times upside down?

It landed up side down in St Clair, 1 time and raced the following week at Michigan City. We barrel rolled it, on the offshore leg, landed on it's feet, in Key West, and raced it two days later. It did a complete flip again, Englewood 2018 and raced the next day.

An awesome boat!!

Just amazing how well Skaters are built compared to most.

And if I recall correctly, Ryan didn't even get wet at the St Clair rollover.
