Re: Finally done

That Boat is awsome!!

Can you find me a 39 hull needing???
I promise I wont make it faster then yours

Seriously I would be intersted in a project Hull.

PS. I noticed the rollas are more of a rounded tip design
Not like the 5 blade mercs. I am wondering what that actually
does?

Again Nice Job!!

Ocean Express Cat 39
Re: Finally done

I know he likes both allot. It is just hard to compare a ride in a cat to any V-hull.

Call Pete Pavkovich. I beleive he knows where two are right now. Here is Pete's # (954) 931-9111. Please tell him I gave you the lead to call him. It may help you a little. Before you purchase anything call me. I know most of the ins and outs of these things.


The tips of the Rolla's have been rolled to reduce the whipping action of the prop blade. These were purchased used from TNT who had them custom cut them for a boat they had. They just happened to be the perfect set up for this one.

They both are very nice units. Each has it's own special character. The CAT is better for speed and is essentially a 120+ MPH party barge.

It takes everybody a while to get used to the ride. A few have even been scared at first. After a while they love it. A boat like this demands a lot of respect and attention during operation.

The Cig is always a quality ride.

Chi-Town has been in my Cig and has appreciation for both.

I will take the cat over the Cig except for docking.

Re: Finally done

Have to use the neighbors wall. There is enough room even with the Cig on the lift but it is very tight. Dave is pretty cool. A ride convinced him to let me use the dock.

Thre I am on the right and there I am with a Cig on the lift.

Re: Finally done

Dave(s) does(do) rule. Both Daves rule. When I get my boat finished, I am going to smash the A$$hole next's waverunner parked right on the boundry line. He don't make it easy to park.
