Was in my buddy's Malibu on Lake Travis wednesday and as we pulled up to Carlos N' Charlies I noticed "Phat Cat" on a lift in one of the marina slips adjacent to the bar... All I could really tell from far away was that it looked like it had 6's.

Just curious, anybody have any info on the make/model/whatever of that boat? Just curious. Looked SICK. :USA:

There's a Nortech 43 "Phat Cat".

There's another one that's an MTI.

When I searched it I found a Scism/Fountain cat with that name too, but different graphics, white with a huge cat airbrushed on the deck. The as$ end of this one was mostly purple... Must be the Nor-Tech

My Client's father owns the MTI. 182 MPH with 1300 Sterlings. I think it is kept at Lake Cumberland.

Edit: sorry, saved it the correct way, but it came up sideways.

A 2005 43 Nortech with 1075s. Been on Travis for almost 3 years now. Owned by a friend of mine who lives in Austin. It used to be at Hurst Harbor. Guy also owns the 400ss parked next to it. Originally built for a gentleman out of New York who now runs MTIs.

No offense but :icon_bs::icon_bs:

I know it takes more power than that to get a 4 seater light layup to 171.

Phat Cat comes out to most our poker runs on Travis and Bob at Fullthrottle does the work on it when it needs it. Thing looks HUGE when its on the trailer.
At one of the runs last year they were talking about it running 140 , dont know if that
was max or not though.

Dennis was original owner, thought he then bought the Purple Haze Lipship 42X.

PHAT CAT has Generation 1 1075's. We saw 143mph out of the one GEN 1 43 we played with for a short time. That being said, we saw 153mph out of one with GEN 2 1075's and ran out of room the one time we tested with new CNC 38 Herings. 140 is certainly a conservative number on the boat with healthy motors and good propellers.

He did http://smiliesftw.com/x/cool.gif (http://smiliesftw.com)


He has the Purple Haze 42X, and a 20 ft Cigarette that Phil redid for him, which matches the 42X nearly perfectly.

Also, a bright orange/carbon fiber MTI, to cover the days that require ultra high speed.

His toy box is very cool! http://smiliesftw.com/x/cooleek.gif (http://smiliesftw.com)
