Cat here is the Boat when it got the Michelob Sponsorship, I put a 3/8" Aluminum plate across the transom among other things when it was at Cougar on 188 st for repair.

That's not the wood boat is it? Michelob is one of my favorite old school raceboats.
How fast was it, how long did it race, how many championships did it win?
I never understood why they didn't put canopies on those boats...

I believe it won Two world titles.
The Boat had a lot of weight forward (Fuel and cockpits) Plus the engines they had were not the best ( I cleaned up pieces of GM valves out of the bilge) ,we got 102 out of the cat, then shifting the weight and KS&W Engines it picked up speed big time.
