03-22-2014 09:53 PMSweet!! Hellbent also runs a 30 Chris Cat. You must be getting some decent speed numbers with that setup.

03-23-2014 07:50 PMA long time ago, I wrote the checks that paid for that hull design. It started as a 38 foot Banana and then we blocked the mold with a 4'foot plug and it became a 34 foot boat or 33 as some were marketed. The last 5 feet of the boat was designed perfectly straight so we could do that. When the boat is out of the water and you can get down to the strakes, you will see the strake that goes into the chine is 5 inches at the end, the next lower is 4 inches and the bottom one is 3 inches. When the boat comes down from a big leap, the entry is cushioned by this gradual increase in width. The chine being that wide is a good stabilizer at high speed, it stops chine walking before it starts. The bow is much narrower than other boats from that era. The reason was that when racing into a head sea, the boat could cut deep into the wave and then the weight of the boat takes over, end result...this boat won't be thrown high in the air and the throttles did not have to be cut back. The boat stayed low and level and still running at top speed. Your boat looks in great shape.....I won't comment on the babe LOL. Other boats out of that design are...Coyote, Sonic and Avanti.
Light travels faster than sound....that is why some people appear bright until we hear them speak!!

03-24-2014 07:07 PMThat's cool to know. Are there any boats now that use the same principles, except in a stepped hull design?

Hellbent, you have an awesome looking updated paint scheme on your Chris Cat. I would love to have a pair of dry sump #6's on the boat. I would just like to see what she is capable of but I was told that the #2's were specifically or originally designed for the Christ Cat so it makes them kind of special to me. Especially since they are in such in original good shape exterior and with low hrs on internal rebuild. I think the ratio is 1:33 running a 31 pitch prop.
