Has anyone run a "sport" engine yet with this hull? I've got a new OS 18CVRM's that I would like to use...You guys think I will be able to swing either a 1440 or the V937/3. Is there a different prop recommended for the JAP 12G when...
I got the plans, thanks Rod.
I've got some quick questions before I start the project.
1. What's the target CG of the boat?
2. Wich of the (4) attachement points should I use to attach the turn fin to? I'm planning on using the grim racing turn fin for the miss vegas.
3. What size servos do...
I thought that Prather props would not be available, because Prather has closed as a business...but I just ordered and got (2) new berillium prather B215 from another company that I heard has bought the casts from Prather. Props look good identical to other Prather props that I have.

I'm still working on setup... This is the hull running with a texas cut Prather S215. The boat moves well, turns smoothly -but the transom is a little low for my taste down the straight-a-way. I will try with a lifting prop next.
