I believe Daz did as I think that he's already sold a couple of hulls.

Looks really good so far. Just have one question.
What are you using for a turn fin bracket? With the deck extension on the rear of the sponsons, I was thinking there could be an issue with the water hitting the bottom of the extension, depending on the bracket. I know this was an issue with some of the Dumas sport and scale hydroplanes that had the turn fin on the sponson inside , the water would be forced up into the bottom of the hull. This, in turn, lifted the fin out of the water and, in some cases, rolled the boat. Was wondering how you got around that. Would also love to see a vid or pic of one running
