Alcantra Seats in the New 2013 Skaters!
#12
Skater are built with glass and balsa wood. Some of the newer ones use carbon in the capsule. Here lies the problem. They basically build the boat and glue the capsule on. Also they are not reinforced. That is also why they have delam issues. Mystic power boats uses a foam core instead of balsa and in infused where Skater is glued. Usually in a "back stuff" the cockpit comes apart and shards of carbon stab the back of the passengers. Skater made its reputation by a cheap light boat.

What do you think is under the glass on for stringers and bulkheads. That's Skaters claim to fame. Light cheap boats.

I love you project and I like how the boats look. Just not a well built boat.. just my point.

IMO the only well engineered boat they built was the Tencara/Platinum. Platinum farmed it out to them. Michael Peters designed the boat. If I'm not mistaken Mark bishop engineered the hull.
