The question regarding the drive type (plug-in or drive line) is for a mental picture of the CG.

Our Motion has #6's, a 27.5" drive line, dry sump tanks on the firewall ,sponson notches and a 12 gallon ballast tank,under the deck. Two knee braces and a thickened transom have also been added. The layup is Kevlar and the hull, with interior, weighs 3,350#,plus bilge hatch's.

the motors were on a drive line and the drysump tanks were on the firewall (notice that I have a storage space then the firewall) also the gas tanks were moved back on mine... I havent weighed it but Motion and my friend (who built it and has built other Motions)told me this boat was the lightest they have built.

The boat started life as Udderly Fantastic,driven by Andy Troust and throttled by Keith Holmes....Then Keith and someone else bought the boat and it became Cat Can Do.

Pictures will be forth coming------Everything inside and out is new.....Also, a new dual tandem gooseneck trailer that's unique,even patent-able. We designed the trailer and had it built locally.

It has been cut open and a complete new 5 place interior has been installed. A high end aircraft center installed their custom seats and upholstery. The throttle console came from Skater and the dash and canopy pads were made new by the fiberglass shop. The F 16 canopies were also completely rejuvenated.
