OUTERLIMITS POWERBOATS CATS AROUND NARRAGANSETT BAY


The Outerlimits Catamaran proves that not all cats are quiet and stealthy. This new 50’ Outerlimits Cat was last seen roaring across Narragansett Bay at 160 mph, right on the rev limiter, warming up the waters just as the winter chill set in.

Mike Fiore was testing the Cat before putting it on the trailer for its paint job at The Art of Design in Elkhardt, Indiana. “The boat is awesome!” said Fiore, after running the cat for an afternoon, doing some initial testing with the Mercury Racing 1200’s and #6 drives. The engines, which run on racing fuel, purred like a wild cat and Fiore reported the handling of the boat was “perfect.”

“These Mercury engines are ideal for this Cat,” says Fiore, “We’ve been looking forward to getting this boat on the water and we definitely showed what it can do—everything we expected from it—smooth handling, even acceleration and pure, manageable speed! Now we’ll work with some additional props and X-dimensions and we’ll really get it dialed-in.” he added.

Though it is not quite boating weather where the cat is headed, after a long winter’s nap, it will be ready to hit the water next Spring with a new TAOD paint job, a new owner and a need to run those Mercury 1200’s. Who says cats can’t swim?
