[quote=BobBill]I wondered the same thing as RW.
Why not a used 16 or Tornado, etc or the beautiful Shark (MacAlpine-Downey)?
Malibu Outrigger, for example?
I know PCats (Carter Pyle/Newport Boats) to be built like tanks and just as heavy, but they do have a certain charm...and they were fast.

And I just happen to be crafting a MO by recycling H18 and 16 hulls...methinks also the big P-Cat problem will be trailer and rigging time. Those boats were not easy to rig, as I recall...at least when trailed daily from home.
Here is pic of design for recycled hulls http://forums.sailinganarchy.com/index.php?showtopic=150180
Am near done with main hull but project will likely drift into next season a bit. Have to add deck to outrigger and akas (cross beams), rigging and motor mount to aft aka...but should not be too bad. Some picky stuff but should work.[/quote]
