Ya it does actually! Small cats are probably THE most dangerous boat in the wrong, inexperienced hands. I had a small cat as my second go-fast and it was very unforgiving.

1. LipShip Gladiator Blue/Silver Texas
2. Storm Debris 38 TG - Tickfaw
3. Current 38 TG - Tickfaw
4. F2 38 TG - LOTO
5. NJ TG - Last weekend
6. NJ TG - about 2 years ago/ boat was recently for sale damaged
7. Lipship Gladiator - Biscayne Bay late last year

These are just the ones on the top of my head. The only Fountain I can think of is Cashbar's incident.......
because there are a lot of stupid people with ALOT of $$$$$ ...... Present company excluded .....

1 - I was told the lipship gladiator that spun on Texoma was due to mechanical failure. The trim tabs were not working. But........if thats all it takes to spin one

Last night at the sign up meeting for the Royal Purple I heard that the insurance company may auction the boat off "as-is". I'm sure I'll hear more this weekend.

Heard about this the night it happened and it depressed the hell out of me. Easily my favorite boat in the area (exept for maybe AJ's ). I've got some pictures of the wreck somewhere but they're pretty similar to what Croozen posted.

Wish I had been in town for the Hooters party, just got back in from Mexico last night...
