    Cat hull like Cheetah

    Any cat hulls that handle like the cheetah but smaller?

    The Cheetah is the best handling cat hull I've ever built/driven. It's one of the widest hulls in relation to its length. Most other hulls, larger or smaller, are considerably narrower and as a result don't turn at speed as well. Depending on the setup and speeds you're after, most other smaller hulls will be a compromise in handling characteristics.

    The 28" Delta Force Pathfinder comes to mind, as do the V3 29" Proboat Miss Geico and Blackjack RTR cats.

      I have them and they don't come close your right. These were some nitro hulls I've seen that ran really good but I think there out of business?

      Thanks Tom

        I built this Aeromarine Laminates Mean Machine ( 30 inches) for a customer some time ago ; Aeromarine is a bit hard to figure out now Nice hull - wide enough to actually turn. Maybe you can find a clean used one

          talk to the guy that has the molds and he said it cost to much to make them and not enough people wanting them.

            I have an Aquacraft Lucas Oil, and a Motley Crew.
            They run pretty good, and you can still find them every once a while.
            @Properchopper has a great thread on one/two he had.

                        Search MTC on facebook that is how I went about getting them I have 7 of them so far. It does take time and leg work.
