I'll play...

Let's see, you've added two new seats and your weight capacity is 700#'s (incl motor) AND your avatar says "Shark Hunter"?...

When your hands are on the steering wheel, are your knees against your chest? Just wondering.

Is this a "Hey you two up front...can you jump in the water for a sec so I can get something out of my storage..." deal?

"Oh by the way...dude up front, I can't see shit when I'm driving...even when your sitting down..."

Best of luck to you buddy. See you on CNN soon...

Deamon,
Thank you for you comment
The capacity of the Craig Cat is 750 LBS include Gear & Motor, The extra seats does mean add more people, it is made for two people only and limit to 250 LBS per person
Per seat, the extra seats are used as fishing seats.
Shark Hunter!!!

Hey Willie,
I can see you had a lot of fun designing, fabricating and assembling your new toy! How does that steering control stick work? is it fly-by-wire? Can you post a picture/video of it in action on the water?

Here is a link for the Craig cat performance, it was little hard at the beginning to get used to the stick. But once you get used to it, it is easy to steer.
