I like this boat alot because it so different. I think the wood is cool and the overall cockpit high end looking, kinda like a yacht. The outside is great looking and the paint nice as well. As far as the rest of the boat? It is a tried and proven Skater,not some new hull design that will need teaking for the next several years to make it right. I congratulate the owner for building something different.

I think it looks awesome! Passengers who ride in this boat need to be trained in emergency escape procedures. I can't tell the dimensions of the rear window/escape hatch from the photos, but it looks a lot bigger than the escape hatch on my last race boat. If trained properly, I think people would survive a roll over and be able to get out, even in shallow water. Come on guys, pete's no dummy. I'm sure that hard top is plenty beefy and strong. A complete blow over with the boat landing upside down and entering with that back window first wouldn't be good, but in the same scenario with an open boat the passengers wouldn't do so well either.

It's definitely different so that makes it cool.
Not my personal taste, but then again it's not my boat.

04-10-2010 10:11 PMThis boat got to it's new home today at !2:00 noon in Discovery Bay CA. It was meet there by the new owner, a Skater Tech and Bob Teague himself. They ran the boat today on it's first maiden voyage for several hours and all systems worked flawlessly and the new owner is ecstatic and can't wait for Desert Storm................................
