What happened with Mystic and Platinum is legaly ok because to call a desing yours you only have to change a 10% of the original desing in wich this case be the lenght and the canopy I gess and maybe a stringer in the bottom of the boat. This right here has passed in boat foerver, 24 Pantera, P&D and others had made the exact same boat in difference to the windshield, resuming Platinum, is to Mystic, as a Corvette 00, is to a Corvette 08

THAT MAY BE THE LAW (AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT LAW), BUT MORALLY IT'S WRONG TO TAKE SOMEONE ELSE'S HARD EARN MONEY AND TIME AND COPY SOMETHING AND THEN CALL IT YOUR OWN.

Dude wrong that 10% BS is gone, you have to be original by law now!

Maybe you can answer this for me.
Why did Cintron go from a Platinum to a Mystic???

Post 8 as well.
Look at Dave Callens reply to my post on the first runs in the mystic and the old Tencara. I'd say your wrong and since I was there and saw the runs I'll tell you just like I said back then the boat wasn't right then but came back 2006 real nice.:evilb:

I was told they are still running the MTI because the mystic was set up as a kilo boat and they are in the transition of making it into a race boat.
