Thank you @Joseph Durnya

I like the sound of that! Keep in touch once you have your maiden voyage 👍, I wanna know how it pans out .

Thanks for sharing those pictures, that thing is rad! Curious how it will work with the pump setup. I know my setup probably isn’t ideal but figure I’ll get it to work good enough! This build was kinda more of a “memorabilia” build. As a kid my uncle and dad had this exact hull and I was...

Oh man!!! This is awesome!, honestly surprised to see another one of these😬. I found both of these hulls on eBay and my dad is building one and I’m building the other! Here are a few pictures of mine in its current state, almost ready for a maiden voyage as well! Sporting a 26cc Zenoah . Digging...

Still curious if anyone knows anything about these hulls? From what I’ve gathered they’re 1970’s vintage “Lancer” by Excalibur hulls. Has anyone seen or ran one of these hulls over their rc boating career haha?

Thanks @Wasted wages ! Yes, I went overboard and drew up and machined the stringers, servo box and etc myself. if I didn’t have access to solid works and cnc machines this build wouldn’t be half of what it is haha. I completely get where you’re coming from in regards to the engine setup in this...

Ya haha, wouldn’t want a bubble deck ! Thinking pool noodles packed in there, unless there’s a better solution .

I’ll probably have a string tied to it for the maiden voyage 😂. but yes, I plan on packing all the foam in there I can! Pretty sure if shed a tear if I lost this one.

Thanks David, I appreciate it. Been a really fun project. You’re on it, that’s the exact prop I picked up from voodoo. Just have some time consuming odds and ends to wrap up like the servo box lid, servo box mounts, steering and throttle linkage and stuff like that. Hoping to have it done within...

I appreciate all your input @Davidkrienke ! This is a first time build so it’s semi experimental. I probably should have joined the forum when I started because I’ve had a lot of questions along the way haha. I can tell you the boat weights 12.5lbs finished and floats well in the tub. That...

Oh man, that’s fast! I knew this would prob be too much motor but I just couldn’t handle how small that nitro motor would look In it. The pull start, clutch, and decent idling was appealing to me with the gas motor. I’ll drum up a few pictures so you have an idea of what I’m working with.

I may get some flack for This one, but I’m setting it up with a 26cc gas motor. Taking a little different approach on this build I guess you could say. Btw, it’s 36” in length .

I recently acquired a vintage flat bottom hull and decided id take on the project! I’m approximately 90% finished with the build, and have enjoyed every aspect of it this far. It’s been a learning curve and I’m sure there will be some kinks to work out but I’m going for it ! I will say, it...
