The damage - circa 1984 Jan I think at the Cougar yard.

Wow, I don't remember that much damage. I remember the patching a smaller hole in KW with some Aluminum one year.

more cat questions
 
Does anyone know what happened to wolverine 792 (blue and white colour scheme). Great looking cat I think it was a 38' Cogar but was it plastic ? Did it appear as a brown and white number 45 Benihana did it then become one of the Mr. Roberts boats ? The Wolverine cat seemed to run well in the 1981 KW finals where Michel Meynard's new light weight Fayva crashed out. Be interesting to know the boats full history plus the usual question..... where is it know ?

I would say that these 3 boats are one and the same.....(Active cat). Can't remember in what order though. Somewhere on here is a thread about the Active cats I think that will answer the question.

those three boats are the same, it started as wolverine then bud lite then aj roberts. i believe roberts crash it in lake michigan and that was the end of it. it was the first active 37 cat made. it was never the 45 benehana that boat i believe became warecry after many different names and owners.

One of the first Active built was the Hublot of Walter Ragazzi in 1982. It didn't finish the season because of the waves of the Solent during the Worlds at Poole in August.

P.S. for flying fish: you must correct the data about the Chrysler Laser that seems evident it wasn't the former Wolverine.

active cats
 
Sorry to be stupid here but were these active cats anything to do with cougar ? Were they built under license if not who designed them and where were they built and I presume they were plastic ?

butch ryan 11-22-2008 09:38 PM

Butch why the Couger head on the boat ? You had the first 33', than Gary ran the first updated Black 33' in Key West. That one became Bob Kehrig's Couger M-588 that won the worlds 1983, all had the Cougar logo ??
