I had a Water Skeeter river runner 4, was a very comfy boat. I had a problem with the bladders, couldn't get a replacement from them, they were out of them.
Patched it a few times, they ended up getting brittle. Pumping it up was a pain compared to my Fishcat, and I found it heavy to handle. Big pontoons got you up out of the water nicely, but caught wind real hard. Always found a need to use a drift sock when anything much of a wind came up.
Next thing I knew, they were out of business. I still have the oars and the seat and the accessories for it. I never bothered trying to see if Outcast could supply a bladder that would work in it. It was simpler to just go get another boat, as that would have been 3-400.00 to replace those bladders anyway, from various places.
You'd be better off spending 5-600 for a Fishcat, Outcast has good bladders, a good repair program if needed, and they will be around for the forseeable future.
All in all I find the Fishcat to be a better boat all around.
