I think that is the old / redesigned Mear Cat. When the new owners brought the companies together they a marketing both lines.

CSI Marine is the owner of Sonic USA, Dakota (center consoles), and the former Mares Cat. It is in fact, a Mares.

True but they had alot of amenities that the boats out there today have stripped out. There are several that I would choose first if I were in the market. It will be interesting to see how Sonic builds them though.
Do they have any in progress.

Re: 38' Sonic cat??

The Cat has been around for a long time, tough as nails. According to my1996 powerboat guide, the main yard is in Brazil. Also says top speed with twin 502s is 55 Knots +, cruises at 30 Knots.

There are usually a few listed on yachtworld.
