Top Cat Test Ride Info

[hd&boatrider]

I posted it under the Sandbar and am getting some good responses but I don't know why I did not post it here. If any of you can give me some info/feedback on the Top Cat I sure would appreciate it. Please post over in the Sanbar forum so I don't have to check both areas. Thanks

I took a test ride with a buddy last week. with the 496 HO it was okay but not impressive. handled well but did not get to get to go through any chop as it was a beautiful weekday on the lake. The fit and finish is excellent. I would definately go for more power (pretty heavy) and white railings. But what is up with the three axle trailer being standard? Don't think I would need that extra weight behind my little truck.Does look cool I guess.The new dual station forward facing seating is like the Magic which was what I liked abut Magic's take on the deck boat. I do get tired of all the wind sometimes on mine. Nice boat and I would not be afraid to buy one but I think at least for now I like the top deck lines on the Magic a little better. :D Tried to get a ride in a 525 but could not get it together that day. That might have been the impressive power set up to sell me. Well if I added a whipple and .................................................. .............LOL!

This is the new Top Cat II from Conquest. Ran 78mph at ***boat trials with the 525 Merc. Looks great!
