Hard to see, 16ft aluminum boat with modified 40 hp merc 70+ on gps

Built by Hi Tech marine in the 80s. Mine was owned by Betty. they had races for Cougar Cubs and Mini Hawks at all the big events back then. It runs right around 45 with a Bblades prop, 6 inch setback/trim and a 25 merc.

Yours is the coolest one I've ever seen by a wide margin ever since the fist time you posted it. I wouldn't ever get rid of it unless absolutely neccessary.

I agree. Its a keeper.........unless you want to sell it to me!

Thanks Guys

Our 10 foot Cougar Cub. Won the 1983 Cougar Cub world championship.

Here's a couple , little cat a bud got this summer and my favorite 17' hydrostream running on the cav plate !!!!

Nice boat! I've got a 1963 13' Whaler..... where do you got the bow rail from? Im looking for one.

Just finished a restoration on this 13ft Paradise. I put a 225 Mercury Promax on it. STUPID FAST!

Wildman,

Beautiful work on that Paradise ! It floats really well with that motor too!

How does she feel with having the lower unit so low in the water ? I used to run a 20 inch inline 4 cyl on the Bullet and when too low the boat was reckless at certain speeds. I eventually ran the nose cone almost even with the pad and was much better handling.

I just got my last boat back this weekend:
