That being said, would you change anything about it now that you've got some seat time?

Yes, thanks for asking, I would like to have a ladder on the back of the boat for raft up's . The ladder we put on the boat now works perfectly except it clips into the starboard side amidship and is unusable when tied in a raft up.

I guess it is a testament to MTI that being the only thing I'd change.

Had the pleasure of boating with them in Jax and Murray and I can second how polite and down to earth they are. And John likes to go fast in the boat but I dont think Nancy does. lol

Thanks so much for the response. That has been my concern/question with almost every cat I look at (that & how to afford it). How do you get in & out while rafted off?
Thanks again.

Alright, the million dollar question! How fast with the 1351s'? I want to know how many outboards (I have 2now) I need to add to stay out of your roost. I'm running mid 90s' now.

If there's somebody on the boat we use them as a human ladder, otherwise we swim to the nearest ladder to get out. It's all good.

The million dollar question? With 1/2 tank of fuel (900 lbs), six people, three 40 lb. coolers and the air conditioning on I saw 162 in a two foot chop.:poopoo:

She ran right up to 150 in a heart beat, effortlessly with seemingly 1/2 throttle left! Rides like a Cadillac with the luxury interior too boot!

Pictures just dont do this boat justice. I got to see the boat in jax up close at the raft up and running the following day. The boat looks better in person. Also met John and spoke with him for a few minutes. Congratulations on a beautiful ride.
