I took the ride, and was truly impressed. The hole shot was everything they clam, the midrange is awsome. I have rode in a few skeeters before, this was by far the fastest (78.6) full of gas, early morning, 27T1 prop. I also thought it was a good ride considering how rough the lake was. Sharpe looking boat. I never have been that big a fan of a skeeter, but I just might be now. I am glad I took the ride. IMO overall a better ride than a Triton, I have rode in a few of these also.
