Glenn has been in perth for the last couple of weeks getting the outboard fitted and run in. I haven't been out yet but he says it rides well. Will be able to tell ya after tomorrow.
Good choice Jay let us know how the single outboard pushes her along. My dad has a shark cat 5.0m with twin outboards, we slay some pretty gnarly surf in it when beach launching in South Australia.
For their size, cat's handle the chop on two hulls the as good as any mono hull 1 meter longer! Only problem, very vertical sides, so wet as a shag (no offence shag!). Looks like yrs has twin spray chines, so this might improve it.

Yeah mate that is very true. Our old boat is this babys younger brother the 4.3 center console, and we were very happy with it.
We're getting ready to take it out shortly... Glenn's fitting the sounder & Chart Plotter as we speak.
