    Do you think a 32" cat will stay on the water at 90+? What is your proposed setup?

    Well, I didn't come to bash your build or anything... I am almost finished with a single engine build on the same hull and may be able to offer some pointers, but it appears you dont want any?
    Just doing a log, not taking input?

    This is the same setup as my genesis that runs 84mph. The only difference is the front wing. 1 day there was 10 to 15 mph winds and i clipped it on my genesis and went into the wind and it never flipped back. I sill ran 75mph.

    I was told by a pro boater that by taping the top of the bow in the front will help prevent them from blowing over, I would put a CF plat between the sponsons and a downforce wing.....Let me know , I have a ton of CF....and servo mounts just incase you ever need another one....

    Yep.. An airdam in the tunnel. About 2.5 inches from the front will help keep it planted.
