Ok I can't stand it!!! I have been lurking around this forum looking at all the cool hardware you guys have but this MTI cat hull is just soooooo interesting. What did your hull cost and where can I get one? My wife has already caught me looking here and cannot figure out the appeal I seem to be cultivating for a large Cat Hull.I may end up in the dog house but I NEED one of these bad boys

Hey fourwheeler

that's funny, I said almost the same thing the first time I saw the MTI.

I got it from xxxboatworks MTI cat, Zenoahs inlines and drive

Contact xxxboatworks he will help you out, great guy to deal with!

MTI cat was $350.00 for the hull 60" long, 20" beam

The hull is from Expresscraft.com, xxxboatworks is also a dealer for them. Great boats, excellent quality. There is a couple different 60'' cats to choose from,

Rick

I have been working long hours at work, paper work, I hate it, so not much done!!!

I've spent over 20 hours making up the graphics as well, a local sign shop is doing all the print work for me!

yes, I've had a few hours to get some work done on the MTI, drive, rudder polished and mounted CG has been set .

I'm installing the drive shaft tonight and will post some pic's tomorrow.

Steve

pneumonia I believe.
neumonia maybe.

Doesn't really matter because the point came across.
I'm really tired and just rambling on now at this point.
I should really get up and go to bed but I'm too tired.

eh...
