all aussie sailors out there,i need help identifying this cat ive just purchased.bout 3.8mtrs long.believe it is a locally built boat in victoria.refer pics any leads or info would be much appreciated.

no photo

how do i attach successfully?

W.T.F.
It looks like a cut down 4.4 Alpha Omega, but then it really doesn't and it definately isn't.
I thought that I had seen them all but I have never seen this one.
Another view might help?

Yeah I think is a modified Alpha maybe for an f14 class..
Loads of angle on the hulls though.. The stern is defiantly different however the standard hatch cover on the inside of the hull matches an Alpha.. Still clutching at straws here..???? Get a photo of the symbol on the main sail as that may help..

not long enuff for that.just reaches 4mtrs.no symbol thats why im stuck.....will keep persisting..i know i had a brochure many years ago.

Put the sail up and see what the symbol is.

A SIDE ON VIEW!

It does resemble an Alpha vaguely, but there are too many differences to be a cut down 4.4 AO. There is way more "roll" from the deck to the hull wall than an Alpha has and there isn't anywhere near enough rocker, also the AO 4.4 has three beams not two and none of them are round, the transom shape that shows the profile of the hull is quite different as well. The deck line on this cat is fairly straight from the bow to the rear beam whereas the Alpha "stepped" (quite noticeably) at each beam mount
You say that you had a brochure? So I presume that this cat was originally sold commercially? If that were the case then you would expect that there were more than just this one made. It looks from the photos like the hulls were made from a female mould. That being the case then some one has put a lot of time and money into the project and you would expect SOMEONE to know just what it is. It has me stumped though.

GDAY ALL,AFTER NOT KNOWING WHAT IT WAS AND NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND ANY DETAILS,I DECIDED TO WITHDRAW FROM THE SALE.AS GOOD AS IT LOOKED ETC...I JUST DIDNT GET THE RIGHT VIBE FROM IT.I WILL BEGIN TO LOOK FOR A ANOTHER TYPE OF CAT.COBRA,MOZZIE ARE HIGH ON THE LIST.

How much was it?
