Rob, there are plenty of other good pipes around. No need to look for that particular OPS pipe.it used to have this pipe the 6920any one know if its worth it to search one out?![]()
i raced with norm in the mid 80's he was the most anal person i have ever seen his boats ran perfect and looked out of this world a true craftsman!Ok So ive had this boat since 88'ish. My dad tells me it was built by Norm Teauge. So I have found it, and it looks nothing like it used too. It was emron red, with the gray futaba servos, and a canister pipe. So far I have found the original prather running hardware kit in New Zealand and the original engine, OPS 60. What im missing is the plastic covers for the radio box and a pipe and collet, mostly. I got everything else for it. It looks like its going to be a project. I have never been able to find any mono hull out there that looks like this or anyone who has one. Went to the end of the internet and back, this is what was found today-- http://hyperprod.bizhosting.com/_classic_21_mono.html There was a post from Hyperformance about all the hulls they had from prather.So any help with this would be great. Here she is today.![]()

Parma makes .060" Lexan sheets. 8"x10" Around $4.50? Check a few hobby shops. Good luck, GlennShane? Its Rob.... Yeah the boat used to be beautiful and flawless, till a cousin decided he would hang on to it for me. I got to get some covers for the radio box. Any sugjestions on where to find the acrylic/lexan or use carbon fiber sheets? Anyone?

ah copy ok thanxShane, Rob is the guy that runs the black bonzi with flames, and the while nitro missvegas with a CMB.
If you plan to run it surface drive the .67 will be WAY too much. The strake makeup of the boat on the bottom almost requires that it be subsurface in order to handle it at all. I had one and anything above about 40 and you will loose it if you are not VERY careful. 45 would be max with subsurface. It has a lifting bottom on it.Guys I have a 40" prather mono I picked up from Kevin Clements but I think it is the later one. I am planning on totally rerigging it with speedmaster hardware and a cmb.67 but I need some suggestions as to which of the speedmaster hardware to use on it as far as which rudder, trim tabs, and turnfin. Would you guys suggest 3/16 or 1/4 drive for this setup? What % should I set the CG at? Any other suggestions or help would also be welcomed.
