Has Any Other CAT Been Able to Do This ?

Tim Sharkey I want to thank you for working with me to finish it!

Anytime ! :cheers2:

Nothing like finishing a one-off project just hours before the World Championship and then taking home the win !

It still blows me away that the boat managed to race so many more races over seas in big water with triples.

It sure poves one thing, the lighter the boat the softer the impact. And with the deadrise you have on that boat it just cuts through everything...

LOL Those was good days. Did it honourably through thought and hard work. The amazing thing was when you got to the shop it was like we had worked together for years and it got done.

Hey Steve, welcome aboard. Check out the glass section if you get a chance. Got a tricky one involving a Kevlar boat thats being discussed right now. Gingers got alot of experience with it, I think its a big roll of the dice. Pop in and give us you take on it. Always good to have another educated opinion.

Great Thread Tim. Keep the pics coming! Those clips are awesome!

What was amazing was Bill G telling me to go over to the transom and pick up his 36 ft boat off the blocks with my bare hands !

And I was able too !

I wish I had a picture of that !

I had it sitting on empty 5 gallon plastic buckets when another boat builder stopped outside and asked the weight! he got the clue when I picked the side up.

Cool video! That cat sure is running nice. Level and sticking to the water. Looks like the vee loosened up a couple times trying to squeek a few more inches on the cat. Both boats looked like they were running great.
