Status: offline 		Well, after a short interruption I am back at my project. Here are some pictures of my latest progress. The bottom skin is on. Next step is the sides and then the deck. This boat seems to be the perfect size for this motor. I am hoping to have a fast cat with this size.

I did lower the tunnel by 3/8". Actually the motor does not stick out the top too far. A rather shallow canopy will do to hide it. The pipe will run out on top of the deck, which falls off at the transom anyway. More pictures to follow soon.

Status: offline 		Hey Marcel;
Sorry about the silence on my thread. I know, but I just posted over on Harold's thread. With the season at the end there is no particular rush in finishing any boat projects. My problem is I am working on too many projects at the same time. One of my buddies just finished his wooden Whiplash, which inspired me totally and I am designing my own Whiplash clone right now. That's going to be my next build, planned as a winter project. In case you are still interested, my Miss Llumar runs O.K. but still has some issues to be ironed out. That will be done next spring. After I finished my airplane project I will concentrate solely on my cat, I promise.
