If you are looking for a rigger for that engine, it should fit in a 12 size rigger. there are a couple different kits that you can get through guys on this site. there is the Hammerhead 12 which is almost ready for release, & the firefighter .12
 
Most of the small boats are scratch built.

Just build ya one we will help.

What kind of hull do you want to build?

Jerome, TerboBob, Eddie Barnes all getting Nitro boats? What is this World coming to? ;D When you get it done, I gotta see it! This guy builds some beautiful boats.

mike .. i did follow ur rigger project .. and juul here built he same for a 26 cc .. its looking cool ..

ron .. yeah the real small ones i like . and i could not resist to buya new .16 pullstart engine for les than 30 us $ ..

i think i want to go for the finch mono thing .. i have the plans but i have to scale them down .. something i am no good in .. some one has the .12 plans for that mono .?

i also want to let my son run it .when he is old enough . so it will be a long term project..

Don't know of plan for a .12 size Wild Thing, but Grim sells them pro-built you should check them out. It might give you an idea as to what scale you will need. There is a pic of him holding one on his main paige

I got a scaled down wild thing I use for electric power. If you want I can measure it to give you an idea where to start.

update .. just bought a smal cat on the german ebay .. :) i will try to use the engine in ther to make a small brother of my new 23 cc cat .. it will be a winter project .. the cat hull is in bad shape but thats more a goal to restore it in perfect conition again .. sizes are .22 inch long and 9 inch wide .. that should run fine with a stock .16 engine i guess .. i will keep u updated ..

here is a pic of it .
