    CDory appraisal

    I was wondering how to calculate the realistic resale value of a TomCat. I have seen several for sale recently on the C- Brat site and their asking prices seem to be really low to me. I understand the principal of supply and demand but these boats are too good to depreciate so quickly. Any...

Look forward to meeting you and others if the Gathering does take place in southern Florida this winter. Have a wonderful Holiday Season FRED...

    ALONE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA?

    James, Betty and Byrdman: We've been to several gatherings over the years; all were fun but there was never another TomCat in attendance. The opportunity to cruise with 2 or more TC's would be a terrific experience that I don't want to miss. Just think; another boat that can keep up with...

    ALONE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA?

    Hi Everybody: A Florida Gathering sounds really good and maybe doable for us depending on the when and where. That makes us a definite maybe. By the way where is Cabbage Key? Are there any other TomCat's planning to attend this gathering? Deb and I have been in the Keys for about a month and...

    Cat Question

    Jack: Your exactly right about the camper being a significant factor when you combine all the weights. I have an Elkhorn 11X, with side entry, which weighs around 3200 lbs before stuff. In addition I had a steel utility body, made for the truck and to fit this camper, which gives me lots more...

    Cat Question

    Hiya Guys: It's difficult to explain in print how incredibly stable the Tom Cat's handle but I do predict if you ever take one out for a test ride you won't be content on a mono hull again. Cruising all day at 30-35 mph in a 2' chop, without getting pounded, is standard operating procedure for...

    TomCat Custom Trailer Update

    Brent and Dixie: We ran into a fellow Cat owner on the Chesapeake last week and had an opportunity to check out his trailer. It was a really good design and much better constructed than mine. He had installed a very substancial center guide which he said makes it much easier to launch and load...

    TomCat Custom Trailer Update

    Hi Brent and Dixie: Thanks for the heads up. Glad there's no moss accumulating on your TC either. I am very interested in learning more about the center guides you designed and installed on your trailer. I have repaired my guides several times so your design sounds like a real winner. If...

    TomCat Custom Trailer Update

    Hiya Guys: I'm very interested in your discussion about trailers for Tom Cats. I purchased my TC-24 in 2002 and have towed her over 30,000 miles and have launched her in all kinds of places and in a variety of conditions in that time. I usually load and and unload her by myself and have found...
