Wait a minute...i thought this was supposed to be about "Quality" not design or functionality? So, who has had the "FEWEST" hull failures per boats built would be a better question.

i just came from the l.a. boat show and pacific marine had a mti that just kicked ass. some of the best quality i have ever seen in fiberglass.
this boats quality is of an airplane.

Think this poll would be more interesting if you worded it "after Skater" Just check the record, COST and PERFORMANCE!! Skater, Skater and Skater..

These polls are so subjective. We all are swayed by what we have owned or been exposed to. I own a 89 Eliminator 27 with twins and it is built like a tank, very heavy and durable but speed suffers due to the weight, 85 m.p.h. I don't mind the lack of top end knowing that the boat will not be all stressed cracked when I put it back on the trailer. I have since bought a 35 Jaguar cat and people that I spoke with while doing my research spoke very highly about the strengh of the hull. It may be heavy and it is, but the rough water ride and durability seems outstanding. I know that it won't be the fastest cat but the construction seems very sound. I have ridden in several Skaters and these boats were outstanding. Opinions are a wonderful thing, we all get to have one. My Eliminator is for sale, $40,000 on a triple trailer. Doug

Yes Gentlemen but what are they using for Material input??

RumRunner 02-23-2003 07:43 PM

Both Skater & MTI are great, but the Victory boats are insane !!!
