Status: offline 		I didn't look close enough at your picture. I do have the adjustable .12 strut. It is set neutral though. It can't hurt going adjustable, but the real key is to get the strut as low as possible onto the back of the ski.

Status: offline 		Bottom sheeting on, You can really tell how much narrower it is......
Minor setback, transom slipped in the clamps, had to lopp it off and make another.
Looking for some balsa I like for sponson cores.
More later,
Gene

Status: offline 		You just might like the Picco and not run the RB. I've had one for years in a .12 mono and it's run great. The only change was to adapt a .21 Nova Rossi carb to it and she screamed!

Status: offline 		Ya might be right, I ran a Picco in my FF.12 back in tha day.
The NR carb sounds like a cool idea to me......
Think I still got a Mac 1110 around somewhere,
Gene

Finished sheeting and noseblock, I have the orig sponson plot.
May go with a couple different ideas.

Just completed the assembly of a boat for Doug Campbell. This is a prototype kit of his Atlas designed from Finlay plans.
