Skater To Offer Entry-Level Cat In 2014
 

Just in, an affordable Skater catamaran—look for one 2014. http://speedonthewater.com/new-boats...el-cat-in-2014.

Something to look forward to in 2014.

Just so the insurance companies can price prospective buyers out...

I wish there was a way to do this with an I/O package.

Just not an outboaed fan unless behind a CC.

Will it be a flat deck?

Good God only a hundred grand . http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...p/drivingz.gif

24 with twin I/O....LOL

That is a steal compared to the money to insure a hundred mile an hour cat!

That has changed somewhat. I got a quote on a 120mph cat about 2 months ago. FLORIDA coverage with WINDSTORM was about $6000 a year. Not saying it's cheap but if you pay cash for the boat paying $500 a month for insurance shouldn't deter someone.

Granted, I have a LOT of hours on the wheel of a 100++ cat in race conditions so that helped.

The normal range for a Merc 525ish (guess Merc 550 now) single engine cat 24-27' range is 100K. Sad but on a trailer with color that's the starting range. An outboard should be able to lower that by 15Kish over an I/O. It's won't be a "Flat Deck" for that price range but could be configured for an I/O if they add a pod to it.

what would be really cool is to somehow incorporate the size cat (24-25) with the twin 200's in one of the existing P-classes for racing. make a great starter boater and something one could get there feet wet racing.
