I saw one tied up at Highport, on Texoma, about 3 years ago. The cockpit was bigger than my living room.

Having seen the 'b.itchin' cat in person, I think it's a cool old boat despite its lack of innovative engineering.
Unstoppable f'n terror.

09-08-2009 08:46 AMI posted this before, but it is worth repeating. When Aronow built the USA cat, it was in the old Scottiecraft/Signature/Pantera building. I was up the street at Cougar. He came roaring up the street in his 560SL with the top down, and said "Jump in"! He drove wide open down the street, and slid into the parking lot, facing the building. When he beeped his horn, the employees opened the door, and there was this weird boat. "What do you think"? he asked. "Damn, Don, this may be a real breakthrough boat. It may be the first one to have all of the bad habits of a cat AND a vee". "Good! If you don't like it, it is gonna be a good boat".

I recall being told that Ross was licensed by Cougar to build his original cats with their designs.
