Thunderboat Reproductions Caspari T4 Hull

[Pat Bristol]

Anyone have one of Caspari's scale Bud T4 hulls? How do they run, look?? Not so much the look of the boat out of the mold but is it scale, left sponson wider then the right, cowl size, shape, running surfaces ect. Pro's and con's to the hull. I really want a DPS T4 hull if anyone has an unpainted one they would like to part with. Thanks for any input.

My first T-4 was a Caspari hull. Basically correct as far as non symetrical sponsons, cowl shape etc. A fragile boat as built, I blew the decks off the sponsons twice before I cut them open & reinforced them. The DPS hull is way better but impossible to get new & you won't see me selling mine anytime soon.
