Everything Boating
Just a couple hours west of Dallas, Possum Kingdom Lake is far better known as a wake-surfing and wake-boarding paradise than a high-performance boating hotspot. But Ross Ramsey of RP Elite Motors and Marine, Skater Powerboats’ national dealer in the Dallas-adjacent city Springfield, Texas, aims to change that. To that end, RP Elite Motors and Marine is hosting its inaugural RP Elite Possum Kingdom Lake Fun Run presented by Cen Tex Branded Solutions.

The event, which Ramsey plans to hold annually, starts tomorrow and runs through Sunday.
“We want to show our present and future customers a fun-filled boating weekend to kick off the season,” he explained. “It’s a ‘run-what-you-brung’ kind of fun run.
“It’s also a perfect ‘warm-up’ event for the RP Elite Motors and Marine team to get in the swing of things and be prepared to host Skaterfest this coming October at Lake Texoma,” he added.
To help keep things manageable for his crew, Ramsey capped the event at 38 entries earlier this week.
“A few customers who are coming are strongly entertaining some Skater 368, 388 and 438 catamaran models,” he said. “I will have my Skater 388 at the Lush Resort (host venue) docks to give those customers some demo rides, as well as hopefully bring in some new customers to our Skater family.”
