I think your topic sums it up... not to be ugly but your posting it here why?
Wouldn't you be better off posing it on MasterCraftFan?
Interesting chine/mold lines on the hull. I wonder what their purpose in life is? Why so many? Gotta be a layup nightmare. Sure is busy. |

Matt,
I too have to ask why did you post this on CCfan? All you have done is waste valuable memory on Keith’s server. Your thought process is not the greatest. You could have at least posted it in the "off topic" section. Go back to designing real ugly boats!!

What in the wide, wide world of sports were they thinking of?? I know that the newer boats have really "interesting" designs, but holy ______!!!! That looks like a bat boat on steroids!

I just thought of something - If MC has a defective crappy hull come out of the mold, why bother fixing it - just put a wrap on it!!!!

I'm not terribly upset he posted it. Made for a good laugh on this rather gray Friday.

I interned for them and had a hand in the hull design and some other features on the boat. I've waited nearly 2 years to be able to talk about the boat and just wanted to share something that I was proud to be a part of.
Thanks too all of you who decided to take a S***T on it though! By the way that wrap was a nice tribute to everyone at the factory that helped to design and build the boat. Its quite obvious that many of you are completely nonobjective. There are only two people on this board that have worked for one of these companies me and Jody, and yet we seem to be far more objective then most here when it comes to different brands of boats. |

MIskier, haven't you figured out that it is not appropriate to have opinions about anything other than how awesome CC's are?! Come on!!!
KIDDING!!! I do respect the time and effort put into building it. A little back story on it BEFORE you posted the pic might have been more appropriate though. Just a thought... |

Matt;
Please don't take any of the posts personally. It was not directed at you, and I don't blame you for being proud of being part of a new product launch. It is no doubt an exciting time in your life. However, please keep in mind, this is a Correct Craft site that pretty much caters to the classic boats. So, hopefully you weren't too surprised by the responses. And, you have to admit, the boat is a very futuristic design that may take a little while to get used to. In my opinion, regardless of the mfg., the boat is way to busy, with too many confusing lines, at least for my tastes. But, I tend to prefer the simple, straight classic lines. |

I agree that some of the style lines do make it look a bit busy, if you look at the two boats in my signature both simple and plain as far as looks are concerned,but the lines of the hull do serve a purpose. As the hull displaces more water the multiple chines help to provide extra lift to keep planning times and power requirements in check.

I'm sorry but I know ugly when I see it.
the multiple chines have come and gone before...sounds good but the actual effectiveness is highly questionable IMO |

Matt, dont take it so hard, man. You probably had an idea what could happen when you posted the topic title.
You have to understand you posted the Mastercraft on a "classic"* Correct Craft site. *(read a lot of old people). I'm guessing that middle age and up guys are not your target audience? I personally dont even like the graphics on most of the new Air Nautiques. Dont know if there is a Mastercraft , wakeboard site around? ...bet the response would be different. You should be proud of being involved in the project, but get used to taking a few bruises when you ask for opinions, especially when not in the target audience. Cheers!
