It's a Fightercat River Cat 32 with carbon fiber and foam added for strength.

The front of my boat was foamed in for strength and floatation so I had no place to put lead weight. I ended up with over six ounces of stick on lead on the tunnel floor behind the air dam. My final CG ended up at close to 40%. I'm building a new boat and will foam some lead into the nose. I am also doing much more carbon fiber reinforcement on the second boat. Strut angle should go down but in very small amounts and only after you have tried moving the CG forward.

I have only one short video of a SAW run from last month. I'm kind of embarrased I came off the throttle early before crossing the second light. The boat is a single on 6S.

Chilli i take it the 40% was measured from the rear ride pad to the tip of the hull rather than 40% of the o/a length of the hull. What motor/kv & prop did you use. Thanks

COG is taken from the rear of the ride pad. I'm going to have to invoke the SAW code of silence on the exact set up. The boat is Neu powered and the no load rpm was over 50K. The prop was an ABC. This is strictly a "two pass and bring her in", turns like crap set up.
