It can be assumed that over the years changes (improvements?) were made to the original designs, however IMHO, most Cats of today are derivatives based on designs from Michael Peters and Skater, with the exception of Nortech, who I believe started with a clean sheet. Regardless, I'm an old fart and would only buy a Nortech because of the aforementioned creature comforts which I would give up some speed for.
Just a little correction is due here... The 1st race cat that Dave Callan owned was the Jolly Motors 43' Tencara, Callan bought it, and it was re-rigged by Mystic for the Turbines, and the Torque V-12's, but it was not a Mystic hull. Callan and Cosker raced that hull until they tore it up in KW. Dean |

I don't even have trim tabs. Mystic!!!! Tom I think you are on to something Tom…… The new 40 might be my next one. With 700 Mercury power though. |
Ortho- you want to go slower than what you go now? And no this is not a jab at Mystic, just saying that it won't go 140. Lol
