Yes if it is in September after Labor Day and assuming I don't break the boat at the LOTO Shootout.

I've rode in both a 41 Apache and a 40 Skater in some pretty nasty waves and I'd say If they had the same power I think the Apache would win in the long run..... I believe the Apache would simply have more control in 4 - 6 footers....

I don't know. I've seen a video of Freedom US-1 (I think that's the name) run in 4-6 and the boat seemed like it was barely breaking a sweat. You could have sipped a drink in that boat.

It's a 46 (?) Skater.

I only have 1/2 a summer experience at LOTO. I would bring an experienced guy to run with me. I would love to see this happen. It would be a nice end to our boating season.
