I'd stay away from MTU's (Multiple Trouble Unit) personally, they just always seem to be alarming for something on all of the ones I've ever run....
I've run both, the Viking is a little bit better beam and stern sea boat. But, the Hatteras EATS a head sea and ride is somewhat close in a beam...
I had one cummins boat display changed and 2 whalers with verados. The displays were no problem to get 7". Took a week if I remember correctly....
