No, the two brands really couldn't be more different. MTI's have different patterns on their sponsons, as well as step positions, and the majority have the same sponson & tunnel widths, where Skaters tend to vary from boat to boat. They have completely different cockpit layouts, decks, layup schedules, as well as constuction techniques than Skater.
Skater has been around a lot longer than most Cat companies, so it probably goes without saying that some ideas on ALL cats "might" have been inspired by a Skater at some point. There isn't enough similarity in the actual design to call any of the copies though.
I'm in or around 5 MTI's every weekend, 4 of which are their newest designs.
True, and how many of the 5 are exactly alike? None As a matter of fact, when did MTI first produce a six seater? When did they do a bustle like Hammer and Spine? I think the boys can DO custom! EDOCK RULES!!
Sorry to get off topic, Love the boat!
