Sold custom built twin gas cat

[Don Ferrette]

Built based on an offshore cat wood kit from a UK supplier, used for templates then modified to accommodate twin engines. High density foam used between bulkheads hot wire cut for exact fit. You could probably sit on this boat and not sink it not to mention it makes it very strong. Cowl is 100% custom hand made, everything is concealed when in place for a superbly realistic appearance. PPG DCC acrylic urethane paint and graphics from Thunderboat Graphics done in the Freddie's Club Casino unlimited hydroplane theme. Was set up with 29.5 modified Zenoahs and Allan Terry (ATR) wrap to center hot pipes (motors/pipes shown for illustration/placement, not for sale). 16 oz. tanks placed at CG, Speedmaster hardware, custom made radio box set up for dual receivers, switches and batteries (the only way I'll run twins) 1/4" flex shafts, throttle linkages set up for Speedmaster throttle kits, Savox digital servos, 6V 2700mah battery packs. Boat has built in shaft oiler tubes. 57" long, 20" wide so it's also legal for the Superboat class. Only reason I've decided to sell is I run with a very small group of guys of which I am the youngest (and I'm getting up there) and it's just too much for the others to deal with in launching etc. Only a couple hours of run time, everything is like new. Will sell almost ready to run, add your motors, pipes, props and RXs for $1000 plus actual packing and shipping costs, U.S. shipping addresses only. Delivery possible to IMPBA Fall Nats in Charleston. Cross posted on other forums.

Tom I have plans for motors and pipes. Alan Terry has pipes readily available and there are numerous good Zen builders out there. You could have this on the water pretty quickly even adding your own stuff.

It might take me a day or so but I will get on that today. Biggest thing is obtaining a box big enough and more importantly strong enough. I might need more than a zip code for shipping quotes, I'll p/m you for that if need be.

Ok no problem

Ok no problem

This box thing is proving to be a challenge, might have to have one made.

 

[Stephen Roberge]

Let me talk to some people I know down your way and see if any of them are coming north anytime soon.
