    WTB a Cat hull and or hardware

    I am looking for a Catamaran hull around 36 inches long. I don't think a Genesis/Daytona hull will work for me as the 26 cc ported Zenoah engine I have might sink it. So if any of you have old gassers that you planned to convert but haven't found the tuit circle yet, let me know what you have.

    THANK YOU!!!!

      I don't run gassers, but I'm pretty sure you need a bigger hull for a motor that size. Most 36" hulls would cater to larger nitro engines, the 42" range is for gas, but maybe I'm wrong....?

          In general you are correct. Im just going with the Caroll Shelby approach, put the biggest engine you can in the smallest chassis, frame, whatever and run it. I have seen .40/.60 Sprint Cats with Zenoahs. Although don't see them floating and not moving. Got this engine by accident really. I really prefer FE boats. Have 5 now. 2 fully running. Visited the local clubs race pond and every one of the boats has a Zenoah Engine. Yes I can run my FE boat there, but race against myself? Got to thinking, hey I got one one those Engines. I used to port 2 stroke bikes very successfully back in the day. Hmmmm..... LETS GO RACING!!!!

              I built a a balsa cat to 42 in. Bout 47 overall. And stuffed a 26 cc fully modded zenoah from Bonzi in it. Its not dialed in yet but running clean and solid in the hi 50s. Lots of room for more speed......just had to widen the hull to for the mount rails in...was a really fun build and fun to run!!! Good luck with getting a hull. If interested I can send ya plans... you would have to widen the plans tho...
