The pontoons are 18 feet long, notice the bar across the bow of the pontoons and the tramp frame sits about six inches above the pontoons. If you could identify the make your help would be greatly appreciated. -

I tried to figure this one out, I'm sure I've seen it before.
Very distinct features with forward single centerboard and crude looking sheet metal pylons and completely flat deck hulls.
Unless it's a one of a kind home built someone must recognize it.

I purchased the cat at the end of the summer and have only had a few opportunities to put it on the water. Had to replace the trampoline, but other than that it is in good shape. The design makes it very sturdy and durable. It is too heavy for racing but the weight combined with a 7.7' beam makes it very stable.
