Info on Charger SK needed

[crxski]

Wondering if anyone has any info on a Charger SK, 1989 model. I've never heard of that model. Its a Vbottom around 18ft long. Thats about all I know.

Weight?
Speeds with 150hp+ about?
Ride quality at cursing?
Stability at speed?

Thanks

Same hull as a Charger DL but with a flat deck sort of like a J-Craft.Should weigh about 800 lbs (hull only)With a 150 2 stroke it should run around 65 mph.Good ride quality and stable.I had an 89 Charger DL with a 2.4/200. Great boat, ran 80, great for skiing.Not sure when the various design changes happened but the early Chargers had a flat transom, by 89 they had a notched transom, in the 90's the quality took a bit of a hit but still decent for the price.If you post on FBC there are a pile of guys with Chargers and a pile of historical info.Good luck.

Thanks for the reply and info, kinda figured it was the same hull at least as the DL, I really like the lines on it vs the DL.

Whats this FBC?

I think the SK and DL bottoms are slightly different, but not enough to matter. Most (all?) SKs had the tank in the bow and DLs had the tank in the stern.

One of the guys at Fastboats used to work there, he can fill in details.
