RE: Wood Cat
so its 57 inches approx.? will a stock zen get it to hit 40? (purty please )
blah... 185 USdollars for a kit without instructions or the siding or stringer... free plans would be easier? I could prolly find a fglass hull for not much more.. (sprint cat is 170 at aeromarine) (an expresscat is my dream cat at the momentlol)

RE: Wood Cat
GFK = glass cowl.
Free plans for the boat are available by searching for the MaxCat threads here or on Xtreme, there is a link to the plans. RBC just offer a service to save you having to cut out the formers yourself. Stringers and sheeting are available at your local hobby shop.
You have seen the build threads so do some research and read through them, most of your questions will be answered.

Thanks for the help w3bby I have been reading the threads. I am kind of dissapointed no one else makes a wood cat kit however I talked to Joe at Zippkits and he said he is tested a 70 inch cat that will be ready next summer. Thanks again.
