Default new cat supposed to win loto shootout

longtime lurker, first time poster.


i stumbled upon some article somewhere on the internet on my phone about a week ago about a new 53 foot cat that is slated to be the new offshore record holder.

i remember the boat was orange, 53 feet, and the bow was some kind of wild. i couldn't get a good look because my bb screen is only 3".

i KNOW someone here knows what i'm talking about, so if y'all could help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated.

i don't recall, but i assume it's the speed record for an offshore boat. i remember miss geico taking the cake with 210mph, so that's my best guess.

When was this? I talked with Scott Barnhart over there around Christmas time and they were getting close to testing at that time.

Did the article say it was going to be at the Shoot-out this year? If so they've got some pretty stiff competition to surpass to "win" the shoot-out.
