Default Quad Engines?

A few years ago I was at the Anehiem rc expo in cali and I saw a catamaran that was so wide it had 4 CMB 100's side by side, not staggered. What kind dof boat is that wide, I forgot the name of it, I do remember that it did over a 100 miles per hour. Any ideas.

It may have done 100 MPH but it wouldn't be able to set any kind of record in the current sanctioning bodies as it's twice the legal displacement of 1.83 cu. inches. It can't be run in competition either.
I don't know why you're asking this in the Gas forum.

I forgot that I was posting in this forum, Ron, can you move it to nitro for me? Thanks. BMoneySL, outriggers are about 5 to 6" wide in the center body, not 25" for four engines side by side?
