Does anyone know of any turbine-powered cats for sale? 32' to 38' only - no bigger.

Call John Cosker or John Pompi @ Marine Performance (386)-760-6464, they might be able to help you locate one.
Hope this helps,

Whatever you missed your payment on
Jeffrey,
Before you spend the cash, Talk to the guys at Wiesman about that setup.

Puder - The Cig will always be at the top of my list. Just making some light (very light) inquiries to see what's out there ...

Thanks for the other referrals. I will check them out.

Build your own.

I read about turbine boats in a power boat magazine. They listed a few people who put them together. One of the names was Firestorm Turbines. I only remember because I saw a guy at the poker run wearing the logo on his hat and shirt. I did some surfine when I got home and found his site. http://www.firestrm.ca/. I don't know if he had anything to do with the new MyWay, but he was hanging around and answering a lot of quetions.

How loud are these things? I mean are they louder when they are going past then say a a large big block? How many hours btwn service intervals do they have? I would think that the wine from the turbine is almost unbrearable????
