The cats were built after Rudy Ramos sold the company to Johnny Whitsett. Another "Legend" in the boating world. :( :eek:

I Just Read The Thread From Nov.-dec. About Raysoncraft Boats. But Still Looking For A Web Site. Thanks For The Responce! Sounds Like It Might Be A Well Made Boat.

So I Quess Buying A 2000 26' Raysoncraft Cat Might Be A Bad Idea. For A First Cat. Does Anyone Warranty/work On That Hole? It Sounds Like It Might Be Something To Look At.

any competent fiberglass shop can work on it...
that 26' is a good bottom--maybe have a survey done on the boat if you're not sure what to be looking out for :wink:

Not a clue. Haven't heard about him in quite some time.
BTW, if you do end up getting that boat, I would highly recommend running the serial numbers on the motor, drive, and gimbal to make sure that they are not "hot."

If there's already a "hole" in the "hull", I wouldn't recommend buying it. :D

why would it be a BAD IDEA? These cats are awsome. Ride great and run better.
