Wildman from S&F rigs some of the most beautiful Cats from

and even though his website is down, Brian Hollis will still build you a 26 or 28 Joker last I heard.

Progression makes some excellent boats. What ever happened to Joker (Brian)? He was a good member here.

I think that was a choice as he was also involved in the family business that was successful. But I agree too bad!

I know someone bought the 28 profile molds (possibly other profile molds) and moved them down to Cumberland.

I see the Predator cat which is a Doug Wright design, beautiful lines, does not seem to be very common.
