Project: Adaptation | Waves And Wheels' Custom Doug Wright 42 Carbon 

For most people, getting in and out of a high-performance catamaran is a snap. But Dave Burgess, a longtime powerboat owner from Michigan who years ago broke his back in a snowmobile accident, is not most people. His physical limitations had long ruled him out of owning even the most-custom “standard” go-fast cat-at least until he reached out to Justin Wagner, the creative genius behind Waves and Wheels in Osage Beach, Mo. Working closely with Burgess, Wagner and his creative team built a new 42-foot Doug Wright cat that is on the cutting edge of cockpit-access adaptation for physically challenged owners. For Wagner, who enjoys speed on the water as much as Burgess, the project was a labor of love that improved a friendship that started years ago. For Burgess, the twin Mercury Racing 500R-powered beauty, which was painted by Graphix1 Paint, is the catamaran of his dreams.
This video is possible because the Burgess family was open to it and because several companies with close ties to the family agreed to support it. Special thanks to the following businesses:
