Look'in good Pete! From the first WC in a pro-stock Skater 32' outboard! There never was anything in life like racing your boats, nothing!

@@drewdown3132 I'm STILL waiting! I predict the Schultes will blow us away with their first paint and design schemes. The first 588 may come out the 1st Q 2023...and then again it may not. Hard to pin down Peter to a final date.

Why not use aluminum

For me safety is paramount. I would not run a boat over 100 w/o complete safety gear under a strong canopy.

bullshit. i like the boats. but forget it. out of reach. it makes them irrelevant. can they make a few smaller sizes for the rest of us? 13ft - 21ft. single outboards. now you got a real fan base! and customers!
