Looks like a Vicious Power Boats, but I don't think they were around that early??(1989)

Looks like a Chris Cat to me.

Shadow cats were built 1980-83, Chris cats 84-86. Not sure when AO got the molds, but I don't think it was as early as 89??

hin??

Saw this boat on ebay last year and recently at a church auction in Tn., I beleive it was advertised as an aero-tech, but I could be wrong.

Rik at arneson knew a bit about it.

Awesome and American Offshore both came out of the two Chris Craft molds. Any pic's of the interior?

I may have some, from what I remember it was mostly white, most distinct were the throttles, they were super short and had stars cut out of the shafts. Anodized red and blue.
