The factory has completed design in has begun manufacture. I saw video of
hull number two with a single Volvo engine. Looks great. The price in the US
should be just under $100K.

The MC920 is a unique design. From the waterline up it looks like a monohull
but from the waterline down it is a cat.

Initial testing shows the MC920 with fuel consumption of 2GPH and cruising
speeds of 15 to 20 knots.

Paul and Bob
Look at the all new MC920. Weight is under 2000 pounds and beam is less than
94. You can get it with a closed cabin. Price with two outboards or one
130-160 diesel is about 135000 USD. www.motorcat.com

Just a thought, what about adding a foil (e.g. hysucat) to the TomCat,

that would give you a little more swell clearance at speed, dampen the chop
a bit, and perhaps allow you to run with smaller engines/less fuel.

This is what I have also been looking for.  Jeff Seigel had mentioned the
Buzzards Bay 33 but this has a 12 foot beam, and costs $280,000 base

price.  I

have inquired, but they are not at all interested in a smaller version.

The Buzzard Bay 33 has a queen sized bed in the center and entrances on

each

side--one of which is the head and shower and is available with or without

a

wall on the head size.  We are interested in a bunk we can get into from

each

side (so we are not crawling over.  It also has a pilothouse, with a good
sized galley and L shaped settee/table.

The MC 30 has a crawl in bunk, no pilot house, and is over 9' beam.

The Glacier Bay is a good hull;  there was a 25 built around the late 90's
which has a bunk in the middle, but no real galley or pilot house.  The

older

Glacier Bay's have a slightly different hull (no "tracking pads")--which
apparently makes a difference in handling.  One of the beauties of the

Glacier

Bay, is that there is a "walk around" deck wide enough to really walk

on--but

that takes a foot out of the cabin width and thus the dinette, galley and
storage are less.  The idea of extending the cabin on the Glacier Bay has
occured to us, but most of the older boats have two stroke engines and by

the

time the modifications are made and the new engines are purchased, the

cost

becomes considerable...

We are going to sea trial a second TomCat 255 tomarrow--this has Suziki's
150's. The boat is light, with no compressor in the stern or dive tanks.
Hopefully we will find some chop and maybe some swells and see what

trimming

the boat bow down does.  Even the dealer admits that the boat is noisey in

any

chop from impact of the waves on the flat sections of the hull.
