OL the pics looked good , bat boat to much landscape , if the paint was more like one of the bat mobiles it would be better looking boat.

Jeff, which interior did you like the best from the 3 boats?

Are you guys kidding me? the Nor-tech at the show isn't even near the same level of Gold Digger. Turbines or not. Nor-tech had their chance to build the baddest cat around...... and came up short....looks like OL did what NT couldn't....... lets be real.

Not chit stirring..... just laying it out like it is.....

Anyone else notice what trailer the turbine Nor-Tech was sittin on.....

Meant to edit first post...not quote it.... oops.

Hard to vote on boats that don't even have any numbers posted, or is this a vote for nicest paint job.

How do you figure Nortech blew building the best cat and how do you know how the OL will perform since both the builder and owner have not yet ran it. 2 totally different boats, the nortech 50 is a huge pleasure cat, the turbines are the icing on the cake, the OL is basically a canopy race boat.

My vote was MTI Batman only for the awesome paint.

If I were to own one and use it every weekend in poker runs I would take Golddigger.

Jim,
Let me start by saying you know that I have owned three Nor-techs and now I no longer do. Might one ask themselves why?The 50 Outerlimits is also a pleasure boat, but with safety in mind. If you are going to run big speeds don't you feel it is prudent to have a lid and roll cage over your head? The OL has a full interior,generator, ac, stereo system, and all the amenities that a Skater or MTI would have. As far as being run, I am sure that the boat will do just fine. It is not like OL cut a section out of a larger boat. They hired a real naval architect to design the bottom. By the way, how fast has that bottom gone in the last three years at the shootout? I think Nor-tech builds a fine product, but the question posed has more to do with the over all package; ie looks, innovation, tooling quality, fit and finish. I don't think it has to with the builder.

Bill, The boat looks beautful! Good luck with it. I need to talk with you this weekend.See you then.
Gino

Don't worry, I won't make you shake my hand!
