best looking single engine cat out there..my 2cents..Keith is the man, whenever i get my lazy ass out there to look at the deck ill take some pics for you...best of luck
I have a buyer for my boat and it's time to start looking at other possibilities.
The Conquest Boss Cat is on my short list.
I was not able to go to the LA Boat show this year, so the only info I have is from the web site and talking to Keith Sayer today.
Opinions appreciated....( I hope).

Definately a super nice boat, made by a great company, and sold by a great guy (Keith). The boat really seems to perform, and the mold/detail work is second to none. The hull sides and deck are SO straight, its crazy. Plus, 85+mph with a HP525 is great performance. I would put it very high on my list as well. Go for a ride...it will tell the story
Good luck-

IMO, the most striking boat of the show. Love the lines, the engine hatch, a classic gel and look ma no canopies. Anyone know or have a guess what an everyday number for speed would be with 800hp, Keith??
the new top cat is a great looking boat, very stylish and you know it runs good too
Thanks for the great comments on our brand new boat! Scott Kornowski
did the tooling (he also did E tickets boats and the Nordics in the 90's)
having a great mold maker is half the battle building the boat to quality
standards is the other half. life is good here at Conquest Boats!
As for horsepower, we'd be guessing but the bottom is super slippery.
Making a new bottom is often times a "crap shoot" at best. Sometimes
you get lucky, sometimes you get lucky but you give up alot of good habits
in order to get lucky and sometimes you just don't get lucky. There's no books to turn to and nothing but experience and a good idea and maybe alot of luck. We got lucky! The boat still planes quickly, it leans the right way
when turning, it doesn't porpoise and it seems to love the top end.
We intend to keep our boats user friendly with a jolt of top speed now and
again. So far we're real excited. Getting back to the 800 hp estimate,
our deckboats will go about 95 mph with 800 hp. The deckboat is about
12 mph slower with a 525 than our deckboat. So in theory the Boss Cat
should run about 100 mph with the 800 in it. I'm just guessing though.
By the way, a whipple blown motor will fit under a stock Boss Cat engine
hatch.
Thanks for your interest.
