My bad. Didn't mean to imply that SKATERS arn't "marquee" boat's. It very much is. And it's fast as all get-out.

Probably the thing to focus on is what percentage of a specific builder's hulls delaminated, and in what conditions.

Peter has built I guess over a thousand hulls and has had problems with ....? ( I'm guessing 1 or 2%, but I could be wrong).

Others have built 6 hulls and have issues with...?

I do not think it is fair to use percentage comparisons of 200 mph race hulls to all of the Skaters ever made. Only a handful of boats in the world are running those speeds and many of them are Mystics.

ALSO ON THE PLUS SIDE THERE WILL BE A LOT OF SKATERS!!!:drink::circle::party-smiley-020:

Gonna look like a Skater Nation in a MTI State:eek::evilb:

You have to remember, there have not been many if any boats consistently running the speeds the Mystics run. JBS runs in the 170's to upper 180's all the time. There not many skaters, MTI's or anything else that can run those speeds especially for any length of time.

When we did our speed run the one thing JT brought up is what is the speed that an MTI can handle before worrying about a delam problem.

I know quite a few Skaters that had major delam problems. Several of them from being in storage.

I would not knock Mystic. They are the first to be building boats to run over 200. I would think any of the other makes would have the same problems if they ran the same speeds.
