You may want to replace one of the mid modules with a survey scanner ruby. Ashley made a good point

Not to mention the skiff requires a lot more attention so you don't waste cycles of your one strip miner to pull out 9 m3 of ore.. Overall if you're just running a field without micromanaging shut off times you'll mine less with the skiff.



The skiff has an effictive X3 strip miner (200% bonus to strip miner yield) meaning you'll also loose X3 time if you full cycle nearly depleted asteroids.
Small roids like Scordite (~ 38 000m³) and Omber (~10 000m³) usually deplete after 2-3 cycles meaning that the smaller roid variants of them probaply cant load up a single full cycle of a skiff strip miner.



Sure. With a Skiff, (base EHP 30k), it's perfectly viable to put a survey scanner on. It takes less fitting resources than any of those mids.

The guy was saying he didn't think he could fit 2 MLUs to a Skiff without leaving a midslot empty because of his skills. Since the Skiff has just about enough tank to be unprofitable to gank anywhere in HS without fitting a single tank mod, you can do whatever you like with your mids pretty safely.

If you have literally no SP (that's what the 0 SP fit represents), you might want to accept that you're yield will suffer.
