Although filming began more than six months ago in early November when the M CON Racing team announced during the Race World Offshore Key West World Championship that it was entering the Class 1 ranks with a substantial sponsor behind it—Monster Energy—a large portion of the work and documentation of the historic build of the team’s 43-foot Skater Powerboats catamaran came down to the last two months.
Fortunately for the offshore racing community, Speedonthewater.com audience and fans of M CON, Monster Energy, Performance Boat Center, Skater Powerboats, Mercury Racing and P1 Offshore, the team at Scrapyard Media—led by talented editor, cinematographer and Michigan native Brad DiMaggio—was on hand for a good amount of the important parts of construction, rigging and more of the Skater 438 powered by class-spec Mercury Racing 1100 Comp engines.
