Next project is a CAT
Bought me a new project today, 1998 Ocean express 35' cat and the trailer. This started off as a 33' but the guy that built it wanted to race it and it had to be 35' as per race rules so it was professionally extended to meet the requirements. It has been reenforced every 5' through the hull and hell for stout. New transom not even a hole cut in it yet and new paint and a steel trailer. Here we go again! VV

Happy new year to all you guys!
Here's my plan, I sold the xr's and boxes off the Velocity and pulled the super cat engines. Bought bravo one drives new gimbals and rebuilding the 465HP Merc engines I bought for the Velocity to sell it. and bought a pair of #6 wet sump drives and Bam 1500 transmissions for the cat.
Don't think I'm going to take it to someone and open my check book like I did on the V. If the 32 sells It will be quicker but this will be one slow project untill then.

If anyone wants a nice 320 let me know. I'm looking at the 58K range.
