Okay, I've asked this before and I never really got a good answer and its time to start drilling holes :biglaugh: . This thread is also posted on JRCBD as well.
Here is my Dumas SK Daddle that is 36" long. I'm going to power it with a K&B .67 nitro engine or an OPS .67. I've got both so I'll just have fun with either or both.
The hull is similar to a crackerbox in that it has a very flat bottom. I just don't know if having the flex cable exit the transom will work with this flat hull bottom :confused4: . I can picture massive amounts of propwalk ! Here are some pictures:
Here is the transom of the boat. It is only 3" tall from top to bottom! Its 11 1/4 wide.
I've got a skegged strut that I'd like to use to help keep this hull tracking straight.
Should I have the brass stuffing tube exit the transom or should I have it exit under the hull? If its under the hull, I think that I'll have the tube pretty much touching the bottom of the hull. In other words, the prop won't be full submerged but it'll be deeper than if the cable exited the transom.
What are your thoughts?
