I have digged out this FB big boat from the storage after 17 years, it measured at length 52" and 26" wide. repainted it and my friend put a standard 26CC Zenoah on it to try, but it is not rising at alIMG_0438.jpgl.

Can anyone identify this boat ?

What engine suits and what propeller ?
 
good looking paint job. it looks like an aeromarine sport x hydroplane with turbine cowl.

the optional GP cowl provided a scale appearance.

should have an aeromarine label glassed into bottom inside.

if no label, it's probably one of the copies that were on the market many years ago.

stock zen 260 with a 275 / 2 prop should get it up on plane.
 
that is one nice looking boat.there r a few props that might work on that boat.6719/3----------2716/2 105%rake 7018/3
 
X-470 octura prop,light load on motor,tuned pipe set at 12.5-13.5 inch to center band following pipe from flange to center band.stock motor will handle this,set strut level at 1" depth from bottom of hull!
