Vision .21 and .45

Are boats available yet

They are. Go to stumpfab.com

My advice is to weigh an existing boat and strive for that weight. Many full size builders don't understand the importance of weight in these models

any chance you can start putting the 1/4'' aluminum plate in the transon to drill and tap for mouting

Vision 3.5cc

Brand new, hand crafted in the US, championship winning Vision 3.5cc size tunnel hulls. These boats do well as 3.5 sport and full modified 3.5cc nitro as well as P/P-limited FE power. The center section is very open to allow plenty of room for batteries. These boats will now only be available in...

I sold the molds a while back stump fab has them now.

As someone who has designed and built several different fiberglass boats from scratch, I can tell you the time commitment in building molds. Even once that part is done, stop and consider that if you were paying yourself a decent hourly wage what you would have to charge for the boat would be ridiculous.

I used to build custom 1/24 slot cars for fellow racers, scratch built chassis, everything hand built.
I added up the hours building this car versus what I charged and it like 75 cents per hr!

Hershman, that brings back memories, used to get outlaw 16d armatures from best of the west, maybe Monty?
If I could load pictures, the collection I have.
My specialty was 1/24 4" wheel base modified. 1940 Ford body cut up to resemble a dirt track car, front and rear bumpers, nerf bars, super 16 motors.
I made a bunch of those cars for people
