1/8th Scale Hydroplane- Kevlar/ Carbon throughout!

[Scott Miller]

HJ, thanks for your input. I was planning to stick with the 91-94 configuration (less work). When I begin this project I will be sure to do some homework first.

Scott,

I was really hoping to turn that hull into a 1/8th FE screamer. I just had too many projects going on and Mike was kind enough to list it for me because of his vast knowledge of scales. That hull will dominate any class you put it in as it was designed and built for speed. Did you get everything ok?

Ron,

My dad is picking up the shippment today at the Fed-Ex facility. I really like your FE plan but I already have a new CMB 67HR with this hulls name on it. Speedmaster hardware is also standing by in my shop. My dad and I will run this along with a Circus Circus that I am also currently building. This should be a lot of fun for both of us.

Here are the paint codes from the real boat. I have any other info you might need if you are doing research. Just send me a note with questions. BTW as it sits in the pictures it is closer to the T2 than the T3, however if you prefer the T3 the modifications needed are quite minor. I have done it both ways with a simir hull.
