Boy Being that your a painter I hope you don't get a close look at my Velocity. Not as clean as the pictures make it out to be and I can only imagine when it's my turn for some bustin.

You have to be a frequent customer to get the ball busting, Keith and his father are good people

Just think of all the wind resistance those cleats are causing!

You guys kill me, I picked the boat up at the end of last year. I want to make sure that i want to keep it then ill move on to more upgrades. The gauges and dash came out awesome and gave me a strong 1-2 mph!

Cleats, bow light, and paint would make it killer, oh and an X wouldnt hurt either. Jimbo, I love both boats. The skater is easier to drive at top speed but hold on at low speed turning. I still love the feeling of flying my v-bottom on the edge of the pad at 65.2 mph. The skater eats up the ruff stuff like you are in a much bigger boat then what it is, so all in all, its a tuff choice. I do like surprising people with the intimidator though, people see a skater they expect it to be fast. Hey Rob, rub rail is just fine on the skater but thanks!

By the way, pop ups weigh more then the current ones, i looked into it

those old marinium cleats were very light, you can actually sand and polish those to a mirror finish, then you have to stay on top of them to keep them that way
