No idea.....boat broke? XXX laid down a 161 pass at some point with Sterling 1450's.

Fountain built great boats, they have the trophy box and the sales numbers to support their status but XXX was a significant boat at the time and is still relevant today. I don't love the new paint, I think it was a mistake to re-do the original paint scheme but it didn't change the fact the boat is still in demand.

So I ask again, where is the Cat Killer now as it also was a significant boat from this era.

Waste of time and capital for them. They have record holding boats already with new hull designs.

Just saw a pic of Cat Killer on IG ready to test.

That boat is really interesting to watch run at speed (The Founatin) What's left in the water, the last 18" of hull? that's some serious lift!
