The Cat Concepts Black Cat NZ29 is a relatively small boat, and won't
likely
appeal to boaters whose primary consideration is the cubic volume of cabin
accommodations. That said, there are a number of things this boat does
incredibly well. It is indeed a boat that can be exciting to run,
comfortable
and stable to ride, practical for weekend and vacation family outings,
fast
enough for skiing or water toys, and (with the addition of a trolling
motor) a
suitable platform for chasing wily pescatores. In addition, even with the
high-end 225HP four stroke Hondas the boat is still within the financial
reach
of many new boat shoppers. Lance Miller has posted a price of $175,000 on
the
Black Cat NZ29.



My question is where do they come up with the prices on these (and other)
boats? dual Yamaha's are about $36k. Where is the hull and boat worth
$139k? Or is this NZ dollars? Same question on the Abaco Scout, $117k list
with same engines. I looked at the Pro Sports ProCat 2860 WA. With dual
1.7L Mercruiser diesels is only about $117k plus accessories. The NZ29 can
not be $55k better. Looked at the boat as a week long cruiser and the cabin
is just not big enough.
