Those mold were designed by George Linder! From what I've read through the years only 3 were built and they were all outboard models. That boat has been converted to I/O.

Wow, thread comes back to life after 2 years! Only a few Checkmate cats were ever built. The one that was on ebay was converted to I/O power. There was a black twin engine outboard that was raced. The molds were designed by George Linder (Challenger, Awesome Cat, Chris Cat, etc.). Not sure what took place but there was a breakdown between Checkmate and the guys that built the molds thereby killing further development and production of any more Checkmate Cats...
