My 6 year old caught that picture. I told him to just keep pushing the button on the camera.

Is that going to be a 60" electric cat?

Also I have a drifter S cat completed that 26" long and its 35" big brother is waiting for a motor.

Gizmo, the graphics where done by Dan Chase. Top quality stuff. Great fit. And customized with my company logo. Worth every few thousand pennies or more!

Nice boats guys! Here are a few of mine. The tunnel is a DPI 7.5 with a modded K&B. Also a Microburst with a Russian K-45 engine and a Speedmaster 21 with a Rossi Niagara engine.

The North Coast Pond Hoppers, www.ncph.ws has the new Zenoah 260 on a video at the top of their videos page that Mike Hoffmeister is working on. Check out Mike's site also for other engines that he's worked on,http://home.sprintmail.com/~mikejhoff/index.html

Quickdraw Boats

The reason Quickdraws are expensive is because (1) they are custom made on CNC's and (2) they are not toys so to speak, they are race engines! A stock G23 in a hull that large will not get you going very fast at all and if you do decide to get the Quickdraw, ask for a low timed sleeve- you are going to need all the torque you can get with a boat that big. That engine is worth every penny and then some if you put it in the right setup, but if you garbage it all up you wont like it. Do you know how to modify engines? If so, you can buy a very big airplane engine and water cool it and maybe play with the ports if need be. I wouldn't go with the Quickdraw if you just want to bash the hell out of the boat because that is not what that engine is for and it wont last, billet and custom parts get pricey!
