I have been wanting to mess with a sport 20 Ill take it if you don't mind shipping it to me. Would it be ok to Pm you my address and see what shipping would cost? Also do you have a picture of it? I was just curious about it what hardware and what it looked like as well.
I have really been wanting a sport 20 after having my Vegas Deuce with a knb .21 not really turning out like I had liked. It Kept catching air at high speed because of the thick sponsons. It would be neat to see what one runs like.
I will have to see what hardware he was running on it. I appreciate the link. He didn't have a picture of the bottom on that listing. I was curious what the sponsons and bottom of the hull looked like as well.
Is it worth putting the time in one of these hulls ? or would a Phil Thomas sport 20 be easier to setup?. I have a itch for a hydro to run a bunch of 21 engines I have laying around . He said this ones electric and my son wanted to keep it electric after telling him about it. Maybe I should try to find a old thomas sport 20 for my tinkering too someday.
I’d say it’s absolutely worth it, but I have to be honest, I have struggled with mine since the beginning. None of that is the hull though. I bought a used CMB that isn’t working out and can’t pull the props it should be able to. I had some issues with fuel delivery. Etc, etc. The boat itself has a fantastic ride although it does get a bit wild in rough water. Shannon Muth and Alfred Lanza also have this boat and I’ve seen both of theirs run well.
I’m running Speedmaster rudder and strut (although I am going to switch to a square drive here shortly) and Mike Hughes turn fin and motor mounts.
David,
When I posted that this morning I was a nervous mess from a bunch of things. I am sure he is just busy with his family also being memorial weekend as well. I felt bad I even posted that this morning once I left the house and didn't have the time to delete the message.
