Ac r42 gas cat

[john v]

I am going to be building a r42 soon, it already has the strut inside the boat, does anyone have the setup for this boat?, I know this boat is close to a 42 sprintcat but I haven't built a sprintcat in 20 years.
Thank you John virgalla

Hey John,
I have the same set-up But have not ran it as of yet. I'm using a J&G 30 pro. motor

Did you have a c/g location?

 

[Jeff Barnes]

I bet a/c has a set up sheet / balance point

Did you have a c/g location?

Yes 15&1/2" from the trans. Put everything in it but the fuel and then I moved the motor until it was balanced. I used a piece of L aluminum.

 

[john v]

Inside of the transom?

 

[Edward Drock]

No outside of the transom foreword to the front. If you can tip the hull as it sits on the balancer and the front stays down and move the transom down and it stays the hull is balanced.
