Cat Question
 

I'm looking at a 1998 Warlock 31' SXT Cat. It has 115 hrs on twin 502 EFI engines, headers, stand off boxes and he is asking $98,500 for it. Does this sound like a good deal and would this boat be good on Lake Michigan. I've only been on one cat before and it wasn't a Warlock. Any info would be appreciated.

That boat will run well in a 2-4 foot chop. Much bigger and you should watch from shore. Price would depend on hours, condition and warranties. How about pictures??

The only picture was a black and white in a Trader mag. I will go see it this weekend.

Good Luck!!!.Otto

Quiet Storm, I have a 1999 Spectre 30 with HP500s, stellings headers and 175 hours for $95K

Go for the Spectre, I have a 36 and the quality and ride are unsurpassed except for the Skater.Otto

I'll try to find more info about the Spectre. I'm not to familure with that make. The Warlock had some features that I liked. The guy said it had stand up bolsters and a fair size cabin for a cat. The bolsters may not be important in a cat but I'm use to them from my V hull. Does your boat have exhaust diverters. My port is getting real strick on noise levels.:mad:

I don't think there will be much in the way of warranties. The boat is four years old. I think Warlock offers five years and the engine warranty is probably out of date.

Quiet Storm,
for info on Spectre go to:

They are set up with sit down bolsters, as most cats are and no cabin. The boat runs 100MPH on HP 500s. I installed Gaffrig Powertip mufflers with stainless steel mesh spot welded inside. These run off of a vacuum pump. Good luck either way, they are both good boats. The Spectre is a true tunnel boat without a center pod.
