Hi Tony, long time friend. This boat is really got me wanting to get back into things ! I figured your customer lives down the street and you might know how this setup is doing. I'm curious to know if the skeg make a big diff too. As usual you never cheapen builds and I like that ! Always a joy to read your right ups, thank you, Randy

The first Cheetah I built made my customer happy until he lost his pond and had to sell. I built myself one right after that and just love it (and it goes pretty well without four motors ; one's just fine) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl5ebHR6wR4
Another one on the bench going to a customer back East - I do think the large hardware helps it stay planted in the turns

Thanks Tony ! and kfxguy :) when build day comes this will help out. I will more than likely mirror your build Tony but with a little diff style :) I am wanting to braise together together an aluminum oil bath enclosure for a T180 ..... You know if I didn't have to pull half my batts out at 2011 (or was it 2010 lol)SAW I would have had Q offshore"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...

Tony, Randy finished the Cheetah using the .250 skeg strut and I'm trying to figure out the best adjustment. The roostertail in your video got me thinking that I should drop my stut down. I haven't tried a 3 blade prop yet, but that might be the trick as well. Here's the thread... http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...-Cheeeze-Build
