checkmate cat
 
Looking for the red and white Checkmate cat. Friend has the black one called Topaz racing. I was told only 2 were made.

Who designed the molds? Bill?

What timeframe was that?

Never heard of a Checkmate cat....interesting. Anyone have a pic?

I think they were 25 feet long.

The molds are sitting in Brewerton N.Y. hull & deck, been there awhile now.

What's the story on them?

I saw one of them (red & white I believe) at the factory many years ago when we used to pick the ones we sold up directly. I was told that it was a failed experiment.

Don't quote me on this. But I believe George Linder designed the 25' cat for Checkmate. From what I understand there was a legal battle between George and Checkmate. George won and the molds were supposed to be destroyed, but they never where
