SKATER 426
After many years of being “splashed” by other manufacturers, we decided to splash our own 40SS. However a few more changes were inevitable for the sake of absolute perfection. Firstly, the hull was stretched not only at the transom but the bow was also lengthened 18”. With the anticipated greater hull weight due to its size the sponson was widened incrementially, so that the new running length became 42’6” and the beam a true 12’. This boat is truly a dream come true distilling the attributes of previous designs and incorporating the best qualities into one exciting package.
