For me (and I think for John), it would come down to the fact that we have breakfast with the guy who builds the boats. He has to look you in the eye every Saturday of the summer if your boat is not what was promised. You also have Bob Bull at the table who is going to win the worlds before it's all said and done and he's pumping his money to MTI.
Now if Peter buys a home at LOTO and brings a boat to run with us to breakfast then he would absolutely sell some new boats.
I think in these situations, it comes down to more than bottom design, tunnel width, and the blah blah blahs, and more about customer relations at least in this part of the country.

Like I said, both are great boats, just different. Both are great companies, they just do things different!
There is no wrong answer here, fortunately for all of us.

Their interiors have come a long way in the last few years as well. Like I said, they are both great boats.
That said, I have owned a DCB, a Skater, and now a MTI. I obviously don't drink the Kool-aid like others regarding any manufacturer. I buy what I like and I like them all! Lol
Who knows, maybe the next one will be a Mystic!
I will say MTI does have the edge on interior comfort and features right now.
