for the money, i think a force would be hard to beat. dcb makes a BEAUTIFUL boat, but you also pay for. i have not spent ANY time in a force so can only speak from what i've heard from friends and read in magazines. and you can never go wrong with an eliminator.

DCB Mach/F 26 :p

DCB and Eliminators are two of the best out there. I am a tad partial to Eliminator since I own one though.
HTMs are fast.
Magics look unbelievable.

A lot of people will rule DCB because of price. I say list out everything you want, shop the others and go talk to Dave and then you will find the nominal difference in price is well worth it.

So very true! Do the home work and really look boats over, then go look at DCB's. It's worth every penny and then some.

eek! idea argue

[mike37]

Hmmm let me think (HTM :) )
but the best advice is to find the ones you like
and make some calls then go to the shops
and look at the boats in production you will find
the boat and pricing thet fit your needs
and after you get doun to two or three boats that
you like go for a test run in and ask to test in a boat that has same power that you are going to put in your boat good luck on you serch

Hey mike I was in the shop and saw another boat very similar to yours. Similar down to almost the same gel. You know anything about that? Was that yours?
I think someone copied your gel just put more blue covering the front. jawdrop

Hey i appreciate everybodys response, just out of curiousity is it worth it to wait till winter to maybe get a better deal, Thanks for everybodys input

Actually in a couple of months through the end of the year is the right time. From the beginning of the year Jan - June, they make the majority of their money from the boat show sales...actually right now is the perfect time to start visiting them and pull the trigger mid to end of summer.

FroggyStyle had the most perfect advice in regards to my question"when is the best time to buy a boat"?He said the first time it rains after summer is over you walk into a boat manufacturer's showroom and see the phone repair man checking their phone lines because they haven't rang in a week.THAT'S when you buy!!!

I guess if a new 28 Skater is around 115k then a 24 would be 110k?I still think I got the best deal out there.And that's with a hole in the motor the size of a beer can at the present moment.
