Bring one to the Shootout and let's go for a ride! Sounds like a plan to me.

Summer started a thread on his reasons for buying an MTI instead of another Skater. Why can't I respond back with why many Skater owners - myself included - would consider buying a Skater?

If I am too brand loyal I think you are too sensitive!


You certainly can but while doing so you implied how much great you feel skater is to his boat.

He had a skater.......I don't think you need to inform of how they run.

I am also very far from sensitive. Trust me lol.

I don't want to start a pissing contest but if you read what I wrote again, I never even make mention of his MTI or any other MTI. My feedback was strictly limited to Skater attributes. I didn't compare a Skater to his MTI in any way shape or form.

The only thing "I implied" was that Peter doesn't eat breakfast.

There is a pic on here of a skater (Scaredy cat) running to Bimini really hanging it out in the ocean...boat is full of people. Personally until I see someone with an mti do the same I couldn't imagine comparing the two.

Both are super nice boats. But I wonder if a 46 skater would be a huge gap over a 40? Hard to imagine 8 foot gap mti:skater not being a different animal. The fact they're being compared gives skater credit in my eyes.

No brand loyalty hereally btw... I'm apache shopping haha

MTI has multiple boats in the racing series that run in rough. It shows they can get through the slop.

Both boats are great IMO in the rough.
