New hull manufacturer

I've seen these advertised recently, they seem to have multiple products right out the gate and I cant find anything about them. Like the OP, I'm curious to know more, their hulls look nice and they seem well established despite the brand being new. Does this have anything to do with the Rick Roy and Pierre debacle? We've now got Rise hulls (rebranded Rickters) and these? How many ski's are we going to see based on that mold?

Ah it is like all these Chinese mini excavators then? About 30 different names but all the same!

They do seem good though!! And WAAAAAAAY more affordable than the names we all grew up with! Like WAAAAAY! And heck the only thing Chinese on them is the yellow steel.

Eaton, Parker, and Briggs and Stratton parts.

Heck.....I bought one

The same story in every jet ski company. Someone saw a way to make a buck, better, behind someone's back. Using the majority of the ther persons labor/intelligence. They changed 5 percent of the product. And added 100 percent more advertisment. And some more shiny colors.

Should sell like hot cakes.

As much as I troll this site. At least the vendors here have been around, and stuck around. Everyone else like tc, high speed, az, all those chumps. Super sold out years ago. There is a difference in making a buck. And raping an industry. I said what I said

It all really circles back to the same thing. Every hull built after the JS has been regression.
Listen here Crowder, I just bought a completely stock 2020 RN SJ cause in my circles I've heard thats succession ;) Mainly I saw it as the last of her kind type thing, I'm not talented enough to know.

I don't know the story behind the rebranded Rickters,(that has a ring to it) just that they appear 99% identical like others have said. Whatever happened, it doesn't sound or look like good business. Despite Rickters costing an arm and a leg, they seemed to establish a well earned reputation yet it looks like Rick got screwed.

I considered calling VK but figured they wouldn't give me a straight answer. Guys like @Sparkplug might be trolls, but atleast they're straight up. I can't say 2 pence about any of the builders, but $30k-$40k is a wee bit steep for my blood
