Default Hows this for a cool toy

Well this is one of the projects I have been trying to finish up before the water get hard. It will soon be on its way to sunny Florida.

A few times still working out the setup and trying to make it easy for the customer to drive its his first. The beast tends to pull until it on plane. I hope to have videos this week end.

I have a used cat hull here that I'm trying to rig up. It may be one of your hulls, I'm not sure. Do you have any used hardware that you'd be willing to sell? I'm really trying to pinch my pennies and have a boat that isn't really fast, but is very reliable and fun.

Offshore, what is the length of that cat and width. I am building a 23" wide 6'9' long cat and have some questions on motor placement. and what prop you are using?

That looks like Capricorn's 72" cat with I think a 18-24" width. What/Who's 22.5cc Zenoah engines are you rigging it with? the reason it pulls bad is that that props are not counter rotating. the boat looks good but needs megapower like a pair of Quickdraws or J&g twins.


Post some more pics and and running shots when you can.
