ML Boatworks- XCat Catamaran design started. Looking for opinions!

I tried to run mine on 6s with a gigantic motor. It wasn't stellar. Maybe with a sane setup it will be better.

So ahhhh.......Mike, can I scale your frames and cut them myself at 34"?

Hey Guys,

Sorry, my Holiday sale started a few weeks ago, and I have been busy as can be laying up cowlings in the shop, and worked till midnight last night getting kits boxed. I am going to get back on the XCat soon, but I wanted to finish up some other kits and their respective cowling molds. Bare with me, this project is far from dead, that is for sure. And with the new TFL gear drive outboard coming..It is gonna be perfect for this hull! Terry, I will work on a 34" for you, no worries man. Let me get the baseline stuff done first, and we can do what we want size wise! Mike

[T.S.Davis]

I feel yer pain Mike. Keep do'n what yer do'n.

Naw, I love designing new things...That is the problem! I have so many new designs I am working on my head spins and I cannot choose a winner! haha

I agree totally...Keep up the good work!
These boats are so sweet. I just watched a ton of videos of their racing series.

Wow, just saw all the posts. Lets get the 40" version finished first, then we will move to a smaller one. I am to far along to abandon the 40" right now. I suspect a 55" version will come down the road too for the big MHZ lower units.

You mean twin MHZ FE lower units for a 55" hull ?
I am in !

Now that I have my thunderboat molds up for sale, this will give me time that I have been lacking over the last couple of months. I can make a lot of things in the time it took to do one thunderboat. So, look for some designs to be finished early next year, including this one! mike

[FORT-26]

Awesome! Well I guess I better build my other two wooden kits so I can order an X-CAT!!!

[LarrysDrifter]

Is this one still happening?

[cybercrxt]

Yeah, it is, just have other more pressing things at the moment that were already started, and I want them on the finished list first. I take on to much stuff, and then never finish! Trying to change my ways! haha
