Interceptor is building the 25.

The 28 was a really nice boat though!

The rumors of a Cole cat have been around for years. If the 27 is a Cole cat, I doubt it would be lumped together with all these other molds that are pretty much worthless now.

Cole never had a cat. He refused to do it.

The cat mold was tooled by Edhe and a boat never pulled from it. Jim died and it never got pursed any longer

Jim had Alzheimer's for a quite a while. Not sure when he had time to do it. After the issue at the shop he sold off everything at the shop and him and the molds went underground. Also heard there were some issues with people taking the molds. Then Alzheimer's hit and went into a home.

Jim Cole
Made a arrangement with the Stan at Crusader to finish the Cat mold. He would come out and check on progress and make a few changes.The boat is bitchen not sure if they built. one yet has a great bottom
And a nice canopy deck.Worth checking out. Last I heard all of his molds were there except the 25.

The 250 is being built by Interceptor Boats. The 250 mold is not for sale with these other molds.

I would like to see the cat mold then. Wanna see the Jim Cole signature in the boat. Did they use a common bottom or start from scratch?

Thats right interceptor has the 250. I wonder if one is a splash. I know Cole only had one 25 footer.

I don't buy that these molds are worthless. The 28 is a bitchen boat so is the 25 if it's the real deal. A Cole cat? I dont know if the bottom works or not but magics are selling for the same amount they did when they were new.

The 19 spectra with a 300r would be a bitchen boat.

Maybe he was referring to the molds being "Worthless" due to the condition of the molds? If they've been sitting around, not being cared for, they may not be in any condition to be useful. I dont know, I haven't personally seen any of them, but I can only imagine they aren't in pristine condition.

The Cole cat mold is in Stan Moscow’s yard aka Crusader boats. It’s a brand new mold with nothing ever pulled from it. I believe Edhe tooled it.
