Thanks for everyone's help, so I wonder why the title states aero tech on and did gene own that also is gene still around the boating industry.

as stated them molds went everywhere back then
and also the "pop off" molds
T2x on this site was 1 of the original plug/ builders for them hulls
as long as stringers and transom are solid ur good to go
don't know k&k so probably used 1 of the few molds to make 1 or so

Here is good little read for you.

jim klym was the owner of lancer ,aero, predator and awesome.
He was the king of poping molds in the 80"s he did a pop of a shadow cat and sold them as aero.
In the 90"s he bought some pops of a chris cat molds and sold them as awesome
.
No you cant talk to him he is dead by his own hands and that's where he should be he was a piece of **** and I am being nice with my words if you want more info on jim klym go to the awesome section there is a little about him nothing good.

LastlyThat's not a vicious boat sparky did 3 large cats 2 of them where stern power and 1 was a outboard boat his mold was a copy of a shadow sparkys boats were light and fast for the power they had.

After looking at the 2 pics for a while that's not a shadow copy that's a chris cat copy what throws you off a little looking at the bottom of the boat is the filler for the drives .
More pics and maybe we could figure out what it really is..

As rookie pointed out this was jim klyms company why it said gene klym who knows it was probably some form of scamming he was best at that. The address he has is were he built his boats for many years sparky and I were there many times.

Wow! Not very simple to follow! But interesting reading!

Well, I'm the new owner of this boat. I've yanked the motors, pulled the Arneson Drives apart, gutted the interior, and tearing the floor up. Guess I had nothing better to do. Wish me luck.

Why didn't you buy the boat?

Keep us updated on the project please,,,looks like a really cool boat.
