I was thinking about my boat designing, building and testing.. 15 years ago I was running a few bigger boats, 45- 67's ..etc,.. Didn't really know much a bout what I was doing. I didn't know how tuned pipes worked or anything. Got married, had kids,.. ran out of money..etc.. I started designing and building .12 riggers.. made ALOT of them. Then .21'a made a bunch of them too..
Now 45 size sport boats.. Man it just seems to me that the smaller the engine, the smaller the peak performance window is. A .12 boat can be really rewarding but it takes alot to get it running well and STAY running well..
My sport40 boat runs pretty good and I'm sure it will get better.. but it sure seems a lot easier to get going than a .21 or .12 boat to me..
Does this continue with a scale size boat? Is gas even easier? It's alot more fun when it's not so hard to do!!
