    It's a Graupner. ABS plastic toy in my opinion. Might be worth $50

          The Graupner Systems Cat "KIT" used to sell new for $125 at Hobby Lobby. If you modify the sponsons, it was great boat back in its day. Won a lot of races.

            This kit was a great boat - 20 years ago. The ABS hull is known to age poorly, weakening over the years and becoming brittle. For speeds in the 20-25 mph range it is fine as a toy, but not a candidate for a serious BL FE boat...IMO.

                I built one of these, started with a 700 sc and retired it with a Feigao 540 10XL brushless and a trans using 18 nimh cells. It ran in the upper 30's. Still have it sitting on a shelf.
