Default Cat vs Vee

Twenty three years of owning 100+ MPH cats and next weekend is the first time I get to: start, hear run, drive a DEEP vee
(ICE IS GONE IN WI) , bought a 42 Tiger from Martins which I saw on the internet at the FL boat show. Giving up 35 MPH over my last cat. While I regret it???

No,

1. Open the invoice from your insurance company.
2. Wake up from passing out in the cabin still docked at your favorite watering hole without a throttle mark on your azz and banging your head on the ceiling.
3. Having enough room for a full stoke in the cabin.

I went from 100+ MPH cats to our Gun, and I don't regret it. I do sometimes miss the speed of the cat, but when I get out in the ocean on a rough day I love the Gun.

Only you will be able to decide if what you did is right for you.
Those cats are fast as hell, but seem to upset easy and usually it's a disaster.
Best of luck with the Tiger

Default Which one?

I have one of each. The Gun is the boat, "Rapid Transit".

However, when you feel that need, that need for speed, there is not substitute, "PURE ADRENALIN".

JC, Congrats on the Tiger. I hope you love it !!!

See ya on the water!
