    Bob, I've played around the dock at the launch a little bit and can "crab walk" our cat but its not as smooth as some I've seen. I just chaulked it up to an inexperienced skipper :oops: . Let me know how your test proceed, it may or may not help my self esteem, depending on the results. It does...

    I've got twin Honda 90's on our boat. One of the worst things you can do is not run your motors regulary. I'm the worlds worst offender of this do to circumstances. They continue to start and run, despite my abuse. I wish they had fuel injection, but so far so good. Look hard at the wallas...

    New TomCat 25

    I had asked one of the folks at C-Dory(Scott), about a problem with chopping a big @ss hole(or two) in the cockpit deck (since they had done it with the 255). I haven't followed up to see if they thought it would be a structural integrity issue. He wasn't sure at the time I spoke with him if the...

    New TomCat 25

    Thanks Roger. I watched the video, and noticed they still use the shortest wiper blade on the market to clean the windshield. I added 4inch longer blades to ours, and it will still take a slightly longer refill. Ya gotta love those fish boxes. After Wefing replaced the port tank on the "Katie...

    Tom Cat sitting low?

    Next time your at the boat, try adding a little weight at a time along the port side of the cockpit. This would give you some idea of the ballast that will be necesary to level the boat, and an idea of how much weight is causing the starboard side to sit low. Its certainly not an exact science...

    Tom Cat sitting low?

    The cables for the steering got me thinking about all of the wires etc. that run forward on the starboard side. Steering, throttle, power supply. The mess that comes up from under the console that the shifter is mounted on and runs behind the dash is as big around as my wrist. Altogether that...

    Tom Cat sitting low?

    Hi Phil, I don't have any help on your question, but was curious about another thing. Did I see where you were going to mount Permatrims on your cat? If so and you have, what is your feelings regarding their effect on the boat? Gordon

    Another New TomCat

    Several mentions have been made(cradydavis) regarding the use of the shoot thru transducers. I have no personnal experience, but the majority of the things I've read regarding wood cored hulls(balsa in our case) is that shoot thru transducers are a no go. The Katie Kat loses the bottom around 10...

    New top for the Katie Kat.

    I'll put a circle around those days on the calender. We'll have to see how our schedules go work wise. I suffered a couple of set backs on the project I'm on, and there will have to be some catch up before long. I'll send you my cell#. Thanks for mentioning that James on the "Molly Brown"...

    New top for the Katie Kat.

    There is an area, just forward of the rod holders and aft of the Radar arch that will accommodate overhead storage. I had considered it a good location to store the Otter boats when their not in the water. I'll see if I can find a better pic. I hadn't considered solar panels on the hat bill but...
