SKATERFEST 2001


Leeanne Lewis standing in front of Pat Patel's newest toy. A 46 Skater with twin 850 cu in Torque V12 engines 1200+++ HP with Sage drives. So far 118 at 4200. The engines will turn 5800 so you do the math.
This is really an OSO first! NO ONE has seen these drives yet. Look very carefully, they go up and down, left and right and in and out. Follow the red indicator cables.

The Torque V12 fried one of the trannies at 4200 rpm. Stronger crashboxes are being built.

Pat says that these are the new bigger motors and hundreds of more ponies are available by changing the mapping in a computer chip.  Count on seeing this boat in a few magazines.
Pat (in the middle) is showing his new toy to Frank and Anthony from Team Ruthless. The other 46 pleasure boat in the area.
Today's hosts, Pat Patel, Doug Lewis and Rich Luhrs.
