35 WOF

[MarkScott]

Jerry, just read a post where you have plans for a 35" WOF for the 7.5's.. What's the difference between the 34" and 35"?? I have built the spoons from the 34" plans, but they were cut down to 32".. Just wondering if there is a difference before I start work on the 34", which I planned on using a 7.5..

You know the WOF plans are fun to build!

Jerry,

You should draw up some building jig plans for your hulls!

Or even a kit for the jigs....

Got that right Joe. It's purty much all I've been building lately. I may just end up once going the way MikeP did.. CFOW or KOW... That be either carbon fiber or kevlar.. B)

Re: What's the difference?

Well, the easy answer would be 1" . The truth of the matter is, JD didn't really accurately measure the WOF 34, which when built turns out to be about 34 1/2". So, I began rounding that up to 35" when maybe I should have been calling it the WOF 34.5.

I've thought about offering partial WOF kits. The biggest problem I currently have is time, more specifically lack of it to devote to custom building boats. I am currently working as a consultant for Great Planes/Tower Hobbies. Because the products I've been developing are still "in the works," I cannot mention what they are. I actually did the prototype work on the AquaCraft 45 powered airboat.

You could do like Tom and have Climate do the laser cutting....when you get time that is..

Yeah, there's easier ways to do something like a partial kit than me cutting out all the parts. But, that's "down the road."
