Default 28 Skater vs.... Chuck Norris

Who wins?

How about 28 Skater in "moderate chop" inside Miami to Gilberts vs......

1) 38 Cig Top Gun with 525 package

2) 38 Statement CC with trip 300s

3) 36 Nortech with 850s

4) Any MTI

5) Chuck Norris


My answers

1) 28 Skater
2) 28 Skater
3) 28 Skater
4) 28 Skater....easy, maybe in reverse.
5) 28....if Chuck is Driving

I was more thinking of a run like we did last saturday.

4 passengers from Miami Beach Marina to Gilberts.

I saw all of those boats except the MTI.

I thought about how their passengers felt - comfort wise and of course how fast they could get there in relative comfort. None of us want to beat the crap out of our passengers but we don't buy these boats to "cruise".

I have a top gun with 900s and sixes, my skater would disappear away from it in moderate chop. I am not willing to run the cig wide open for that length of time. Here is a cruise picture from yesterday. My wife's reflection in in the dash, ran 48 miles in 29 minutes

^^Is this the St. Johns River you speak of? Looks like a cool bar in the background.

Yes it is, a great place about 2 hour trailer run from home. And no boat washing at the end of the day. You fresh water guys are lucky������
