a few more popular ram wing cats....
There is a guy by the name T2X who knows all...and was involved from the beginning and design up,,,,my understanding is the Chris was designed more for I/O power and the Shadow was for the O/B power, but all i know is they were the boat to beat in its day!
Here is our old Shadow cat the Ambusher, that became the first Eastern Express before the 32' Skater .. We sold it to Greg Dunbar out of Grandhaven, he then raced her as CAT NIP.
Couple more of Special Edition/ Cayo Hueso Express
They've come a long way since that hull design, thats for sure. Like looking at a 50's Chevy, by todays standards, lol.
Artie if your working on the Shadow [Cat Nip] don't laugh :rofl: at my glass repair in the starboard front beak. It was around 1990, 40 degrees out here in Michigan & 2 weeks before the Worlds in Key West:willy_nilly:. Not my best work but she made the worlds, and a few more races after that. My back problems have held me back :eek: from doing any work on all my boats , but someday maybe. Other than that it's all good. h2o
Anyone remember "EL BOSS" one of the fastest in its day owner/driver Willy Diaz?
El Boss was an amazing boat, often running as fast as or faster than the Open Class 1 boats. Willie Diaz had no fear in any water.
