I can tell you all about these boats.

There were three active cats that were built for pleasure. I owned the first black one which was all balsa cored and kevlar. It's name was Trust Me out of Detroit owned by Terry Mullins, I bought it from him and named the boat Tweety's Revenge. The boat in now white and was at lake cumberland marine before liquidators got it. The other two that were pleasure boats was Showtime, and the other was all white with kamma drives.

I had the white one with Kamma drives, that I bought from Pete Smith. [Wolverine] The 33' Active was his pleasure cat, as he raced the 37' Active cat. I thought there also was a red 33' Active that Rich Anderson had, was that Showtime ?
Around 1988 ironhead & I put a pleasure deck on Bobs [M-588 COUGAR, M-17 Magic] race deck 33' Active cat. Bob K used her for years as a pleasure boat here on Lake St Clair & down in Florida. Bob sold her, and today ???????

They built the actives in lake bluff then ,and did a good job with them. 32 and 37 and a 29' v bottom.

So where does the 32 pleasure cat that started as FastCash on LOTO and ended up here in Ontario as AhstaLaVeesta fit in. 510's and number 5 drives.

My 33' Active went to Canada around 2003 after the guy I sold to, sold her. I found these pic's of her , I believe when she was in Canada ? Same Active cat ?????

Nope, not it. The one I refer to had a center console, buckets and a side entry to the cabin area.
