F4P, I was there the last time it delammed. I was standing there talking to Joe. They had no idea until a passer by in a wheelchair spotted it and pointed it out to one of the crew.

MYWAY didn't delam he wrecked it after hitting a large wake at speed, those are two totally differernt types of damage. You take any of the boats manufactured today and stuff or flip them at anything above 130 and your going to have some sort of damage possibly catastrophic. JBS delamed during a race for some reason (ego I suspect) they kept running it until it was totally trashed. That boat while it looks good is not one that if I had the money would ever consider buying after seeing how the owner treated it and continually trashed the manufacturer. I would however buy a Mystic if I had the coin, they are without a doubt one of the best looking boats out there... just my $0.02

It probably didn't help My Way IV, when it tipped to the one side after hitting the wake, that the engine hatch gets all deformed like this: http://www.performanceboats.com/atta...1&d=1315462831
Doesn't do much for keeping water from blasting into the engine compartment at 190 mph.

V-16 boat is the fastest natural aspirated boat out there
On the fly boy boat the guy previously owned a fountain with 575's and went with a 50 cat with turbines for a first cat might be a bit much for a first cat??
On may way it doesn't matter if it was a mystic,skater, or mti at that speed and hitting a 52ft cruiser wave it will do some damage.

Hey! The formula for ram water pressure is velocity squared in MPH x .0147. 200 x 200 x.0147 = 588 psi. Go build something that is light enough to go 200, and strong enough to stand 588 psi. We tried half that speed with plywood, and the Coast Guard threatened to ticket us for littering.........

You got one owner that bad mouths mystic (JBS). You'd be mislead of you didn't consider the source. Guy bad mouths everything.
Cosker is the only one that actually builds a boat purposely built to go over 200 mph. While not everyones opinions are the same, dogging mystic is foolish. Cosker is a naval architect with specific studies in high speed design. No R&D? Please. Guys been doing R&D for 20 years while working with and for various industry leaders and having direct input on the builds of countless boats besides the boats he's built through mystic. You guys are only pointing out a few huge cats he's built. He's actually built numerous boats, building some of the worlds most spectacular yachts and high speed boats to date.
Not to mention, he's one heck of a nice guy.
