    Pro Boat Thunder Cat ( driver = DOBY )

    Here is Dobys Thunder Cat twice the design speed.
    Very close to 50MPH......
    Next time will record this puppy with GPS...

              Nice job on the Vid as usual Robert,,,the HD version is really sharp.

              The Thundercat is one hull that Proboat seems to have done a pretty decent job on.

              I GPS'd it the other day and its was around 48Mph using a cheap Graupner K51 prop.

              With the right prop, mid 50'should be obtainable. That will be fast enough then.

                      From what I can tell you 50MPH is way over what the boat was design for.....
                      But knowing DOBY he will push it, just give him little time....
