[quote author=Fish Guts link=1159750366/120#130 date=1163120777]there is no need to spin some more bullshit about the topic...just post up a picture and let me know what cats youve driven, whether commerical / recreational, what size, and what conditions. cheers

Fish Guts, it seems like your not interested in helping Julian and Kerry is. Maybe you should just pull your head in at let the discussion continue about the topic

Gary,

It would appear the current crop of Jack boot brigade hyprocrites have more interest in covering their own inadequacies and lack of depth. The attitudes that some of these characters are portraying quite frankly leaves a lot to be desired as their totally negative attitude simply does not rate a response and what's more I don't have to justify myself just because some bleating sheep demands.

The way some of these characters act tends to highlight a general lack of confidence and would rather attempt to attack others than actually help anybody. Their attitude leaves a lot to be desired with much of thier totally irrelvant and useless comments

So for the jack boot johnny's your attitudes deserve nothing less than totally ignoring unless of course you want to talk sense, make sense and leave your stinking attitudes at the door.

Regards, Kerry.

there is already pics of kerry's cat on this forum, at least from the treiler perspective.
cheers
blaze
ps
they were put up to help someone with a trailer problem if I remember correctly

Nothing will satisfy this mob of hyprocrites, this is quite obvious by their stupid attempts at provoking comments they jump from thread to thread.

Julian,

Yes your current 115 yammies are basically the heaviest 2S's made. This figure of what ever it is for DF140's (something like 186kg?) is this for the 25" motors or the standard leg? I would like to know the actual weight of a DF140 as it would actually sit on the boat.

I can't recall if you have mentioned it but is your 660 podded or not?

There is a 2400KC here that went from 115 jonno's to 115 yammie 4S and it does sit down a little more at rest and you can relate this to the top of the KC pod and top mounting bolts but of course yours is a NC.

One issue with these little cats and weight on the stern is that every little bit puts then further into the water and I for one would like to see 30" motors but of course the demand is not going to be there. With the weight stuck out the back like it is on each corner and a few hundred litres of fuel a side when it's a bit sloppy the cowls are almost being rolled (slowly) under. Does the 660 do this when drifting sideways in a slop?

Regards, Kerry.

In the meantime don't continue bleating about KC's you've shown you know jack schitt about 'em, fitted a few so what! no big deal and 140 anything's on a 2400 is nothing more than a "holeshot" wank!

....offset driveshaft so you can swing larger diameter props to give better holeshot and superior thrust (great for cats)....

Your not all that clued up on Cats are you #

Read a little harder Blaze, I couldn't have really givin a sh*t what he did for a job but when he kept coming out with sh*t like this.

It's like if you worked as a Dairy farmer for a living and some pr*ck walked up to you and said "What the f*ck would you know about cows!"

This gutless pr*ck is good enough to criticize what I do for a living, yet couldn't answer my simple little question. As far as I'm concerned he's not worth the time of day. #

I'll give you a lil tip kopey...take it on board or not...BUT..as soon as you start using expletives in your debate you immediately lose credibility..plus challenging people to drive there to meet you and "discuss" is also rather childish. By all means debate the subject based on your experiences but leave the childish name calling out...it only belittles you..no one else. If, as your profiles says, you are 23, believe me....you have a lot of learning to do in the trade. I have been in my trade before you were born and I am constantly learning still.

Back on the topic...I looked at about a 7m Markham cat about 18 months back and decided against buying one...so no experience with cats but it sure has been an intersting read.

Kerry if you have a look at the original post you will see the floating pic, yes it has pods and no at the moment the powerheads don't go under unless a really bad sea with two sea anchors out even then its really no worse than a monohull. I agree with your statement about the 140's and I would love to see one in the water, I have seen pics of the newer 2300 NC with Suzy 140's and they seem to be floating ok in the rear. The pods have the same boyancy as mine according to Wayne Hennig. Yes cats do not like weight in the rear but i reckon the Suzy's would be ok but this is what my posthas been all about, surely there are some more people out there who have upgraded their cats to 4 stroke ?

Now that might not be a bad suggestion as not only are the same old same old dickheads still carrying on like dickheads but you've also acquired more dickheads into the fray. Dickheads are like ants they keep running around like a pack of scavengers trying to pick up the pieces.

I'll take some of what you say on board Pinhead, as my old man says,"If you don't learn something every day it's a wasted day." Have a go at me all you want, I aint the only one at fault.
