I have to agree, Larry is the one to talk to. He goes by Larry K here in the forum. I have some of his valve covers and exhaust pipes, wouldn't go to anyone else for them.

Here is my Merlin from Larry Kraemer and driver and parts....

 

[Hydro Junkie]

Now I know that Merlin didn't come out of the Joe's, so what did it come out of and can I have it, hull and all?

Glad we could help

Now then, Mr Duck, does this mean I can have that Merlin with the attached Bardahl hull? Looks to me like you have plenty of boats already

One can never have too many boats....

Good plan, Ian. The last order to Au was 15oz & cost $22

Hey Andrew! Let me know which boat(s) you are working on. I should be able to fix you up! email: [email protected]

Thanks Guys - Larry

Hello everybody .

Larry , it gets even better - Andrew and I are in the same club . I contacted you previously regarding some of your parts and been very busy with work and have just returned from our AMPBA Nationals ( Australia ) where there was only 1 entry for Scale Boats . Hopefully , next year there will actually be a class running .

That will work out great for you guys - just let me know when you're ready! Wow! I can't believe only one boat. When I attended my first Gold Cup in R/CU ('83) there were 58 boats - nothing but Scales. In the first section we had to run heats 1-A thru 1-H w/ 7 boats each. After that a few dropped out & the other 3 sections were a little more manageable but it took til sundown to get to the final. Nowadays there are more clubs & scale boats in FE, Gas and nitro all the way from 1/5 down to 1/48. Fun stuff if you can keep up on it all!

I hope you are right about the scale class next year i absolutely love them and have a 1/8th scale PAY N PACK sitting under my bed to be built(will get around to it soon hopefully)and i hopefully will get to race again after june, 2 years off and four new boats built go Aussie boat racers

 

[Tall Fella]

Hello everybody .

So , Peter Bird are you in Australia or somewhere else . I would like to get my 1982 Pay N Pak boat done as well and was previously told that I wasn't allowed to compete with mine at anything above Club level . Reason being that the National Secretary of the time had a wooden version and mine is Fibreglass .

Peter, is your Pak a Dumas kit? If so, be sure to measure the hull width across the widest part of the sponsons from sheer to sheer. If it's more than 32cm wide, you will need to make the sponsons or the tunnel narrower to allow for the skin thickness and a little bit of a fudge factor as the maximum allowable width is 33.02 cm. Just a word of caution as I've heard of people not being able to run due to being too wide
