    ISO triple 24 skater

    On the hunt for a triple 24 skater. Anyone know where to few that were made are today? Or does anyone have any build specs on one, so that I can look into converting a twin 24 into a triple?

    I had a factory triple 24 with 260s on it. The only thing that it did well was accelerate and chew fuel. Unless you really don't care about turning at 40 mph or below then I strongly recommend a 28 for trips. The boat was absolutely unreal from 10 to 120 in a straight line...

    If you set it up with triple 280s, flash the boxes to 9200, remote water pick-ups, and invest in some good 35 or 36 pitch wheels it will go as fast as you want and its going to take something really serious to accelerate with you.

    Ours went 129 several times but never tipped the 130 mark (that was 23 years ago). With the propeller technology available today, you will be able to get upper 30s out of it. The motors need to be way up-
