Sorry got a deal working on 70 M Cat. Trading out some work on my house remoldel & $$$.Just got done building a 2 story Tower on the front and installing a 1930's Elevator. Still havent figured out how to post pics, maybe I can lean on FastJeff one more time to post them! Any volunteers? Ran down the 38 Cat Hull, Willing to sell her for $10900. This should make Tronteck Proud!! He got a deal!! From memory and my research, they built 3 differnt styles. Trontecks is called the Aft Cockpit Model, One here in Jax is the Tri-Cabin Style, has large Cockpit on rear and a flybridge to run her from, Keep in mind this is a hull just like I started with. No engines or wiring. This can be a LOT OF WORK, however is very rewarding. On the $$$$ Take whatever figue you think you can rebuild her for and DOUBLE IT!!!! Am I rite Computer Joe??? I paid $28,000 for my 60 ft. hull and another $7000 to get her home. Said I could rebuild her for around $80-95,000.WRONG!!!! Spent $100,000, not counting my labor!! Stood back one day, to evaluate my progress and $$$. Had to go and borrow another $100,000 on my house to finish!!!! Good thing times were good back then!! Got a $300,000 deal working on her now,so I will come out!! LESSON-As I said This can be EXPENSIVE!!!!!!See pics on my site--sorrydog.com-click listings then scroll down to Motoryachts.Sorrydog-PS Your BOTH BAD!!!! HEE HEE

I wish I was as smart as you Fastjeff and could do the picture thing THAT QUICK!!! Top pic of the 38 M. Cat-hull has been coated and primed and is ready for finish coat. There is nothing inside,no floor, engs or wiring, clean as a beer can. Jeff and I think a couple of outboards would be the way to go. They run watertaxis here with 30-40 people on them and haul butt. I mentioned installing a 1930's elevator,bought a 5000 lb boat lift modified it to bolt to one of the pilings on my house,decked the forks and set the elevator on it-hooked up a dual drum to a 2 hp motor,2 SS cables 20,000 lb load cap. Found an old ornate Morse single shifter for up and down and PRESTO!! U. PEE up!! Gotta add some elevator music and a down arrow for Davey Jones Locker,some marble on the floor and I'll put some Mermaids in it. Next trip one of you guys come down, we'll sit it it and drink Doc's Rum he sent me last year!!!! Sorrydog
