What you have is a Active 32', Bud Drettman started Active & Ross worked for him at that time. You cat was originally Black with the name TRUST ME in gold. There were only six 32' Active's made, 3 race, 3 pleasure. You have the same cat as I had.
The pleasure [non race boat] one's were Pete Smith's Wolverine [this became my cat] TRUST ME, & Rich Andersons Red & White cat. The race cats were COUGAR that became Motor City MAGIC, BlUE MAX, & Miss GALLOW wine. All of these cats came from the Detroit, Lake St Clair area. Here is the old BLUE MAX, it raced in Key West last year.

adk61 11-11-2011 09:39 AM

yes sir there is still hope for the ole girl afterall!! lol ross did work with the Active Marine co. an as I've been informed was quite instrumental in the creation of these boats!!! they were built tough as nails in their kevlar layup, as far as I know, this boat of mine is well built and she runs hard!!

adk61 11-11-2011 10:17 AM

yes this boat was black, and it was owned by Tague Estes of Infusion Marine in Fl... can't remember who had it when it was traded into Lake Cumberland Marine... from there it made its way to me, and now I'm running my 900's in her (AKRacing 900sc's) I also build a 1000sc, and 1100sc...
as well as many other engine packages both sc and na

Yes it was, then sold, restored and raced in the Worlds in Key West last year, I think it just recently sold again.

adk61 11-21-2011 01:58 PM

hey guys... quit Jackin my post!! lol
I love my active, and the only reason I want to sell her is I found a 39' or should I say the 39' of my dreams found me!!
If I can't secure this deal on the 39' with the sale of my 32'
I will keep her and run her again as she is a sweet ride!!
all she ever wanted was enough power!!! now she has that!! so all is great!! to the exception of 7' missing from her bow!! lol

Greatlaker 11-22-2011 07:15 PM

Hay I own 32 ' ACTIVE CAT last time I knew there 3 left I think your boat had some up datting done by Sparky at Vicious years back befor it went To Florida Whats on it now for drives?

adk61 11-22-2011 07:21 PM

yes sir... you are correct!! Sparky redid the tunnel and corrected the bottom... I now have big power in her just what she wanted... 900's with 3A's 133:1 ratio I also updated the interior with the addition of Skater style sit down buckets with 5pt harness system, and I moved the throttle/shifter asm to a side pod on the drivers bucket!! I love this boat!! and I must be outta my mind to sell her, but someone stuck a prestine 39' under my nose... and I just can't pass it up!!!

adk61 11-22-2011 07:27 PM

send me pics of yours... love to see what you have...

What hull do you have ? adk61 cat originally belonged to Bud Drettman founder of Active Marine, it was then sold to Terry Mullins who than named her TRUST ME, he is a car dealer. I know where 4 of the six cats are, Lew Coopers Gallow Wine & the red & white pleasure cat of Rich Anderson are MIA.

adk61 11-23-2011 04:57 PM

what's in yours for power? what drives? etc etc... looks good at speed

If your referring to the pic I posted thats Lew Coopers cat thats MIA. It had Arneson drives & big block Chevy's that were set up for APBA sport class. This cat ran around 100mph back in 1983.

adk61 11-23-2011 08:24 PM

i have the one that used to be black, and was sitting in an auto dealers yard in Mi... Tague Estes of Infusion marine in Fla owned it not sure who had it before it went to lake cumberland marine... I got it from that point... now she sports 900 sc's with speedy 3A's and cruises at 100mph @4100 rpm, lots left in her, will open her up next time out... (summer 2012)

adk61 11-23-2011 08:26 PM

that's if I still own her then... as I stated she's for sale if the dollar is right...
