Great boat, wondering where they have gone.

Hello
in the Middle 80s some one in Ohio said he had the molds and trying to sell boats
both sizes the 28 and the 32 I think.
But then they disappeared again.
Haven't seen any of the finished race boats in many years

Thank you
Jim

The Cougar 36' was modified in the deck and became Reporter drove by Steve Curtis in 1988-89 in Europe. Then was sold to the Frenchman Palchetti.
The Cougar 38' was sold to another Frenchman, Marret, that compete in Europe in 1988 renaming it Divin.
The Cougar 41' was sold to the japanese magnate Kobayashi that give the toy to him son without results.
The Apache 41' mono was sold to the Englishman Gervaise-Brazier and Falk and raced the Guernsey event in 1987.
About the Production class monos I don't know the story.
About the two firsts cats I think they're resting somewhere in Cote' D'Azur or in the Principaute du Monaco.
About Sal Magluta and him band I think they're resting somewhere in a US Federal Prison.

Yes, they were good looking boats and ran pretty well in their day, Shame that there aren't many or any around and the molds seem to disappear.

Thank you
