That looks like it will kick up a nice rooster tail!
Can we see a pic of the inside?

re my new cat

hey dom,

i bought the motor off a guy in kitchener. the list price on it is 495.00




thanks steve.

im in the process of removing the transmission and converting it to direct drive. i also have to change to a new motor mount because the lehner motor is so big.

It looks fast just sitting there!

Did you order that on line or did you get the hull used from someone?

What do they sell for?

re my cat

i bought this cat from a guy in maryland. the hull is a hydro & marine 36" drifter cat which is built in germany by a fellow named oliver sless.

these hulls retail for about 300 bucks.

when i bought the cat it came with a fine design marine transmission but when i went to install the lehner motor its so big it wont fit unless i convert it back to direct drive.

thats cool, should be a lot more stable than the 26" jack, im thinking of grabbin a 43 inch challenger (mono) and goin brushless but thats just a thought for now, i'd have to put in a lot of overtime in the winter to afford something like that, but we'll see. im sure yours is gonna rrrrrip.
