Clutch is allways a good idea in my opinion you will lose a little speed but not that much maybe a cpl mph.by the way angling the rudder blades in towards the transom as in tuck them in a touch will also raise the bow might help get her planing better.Lots of things to try on a boat .

Was calm man but too F.......g wind and gold.

We make all the test after I have back the hull. It will be also some kilos less than now

Im talking with one person here ( owner of twin Math engines ) if we have a deal I will put them on the 72 if not I will order Twin Zenoah.

After all I have to say thanks to Doug for the nice plans let on network and thanks to all the people here for the details and help ( with one way or another ). Also I wanna see the rest of the 72 boat are build or in the way to the water to compare it with my.

This week you have to help me with the new hull I will build

Look forward to the build mate have you read my old one ?,i changed the plans a lot on mine mainly raised the sides a lot but other things too.Thats the great thing about scratch building you can change things to suit what you want .

lol ill find the link for yaa as for plans i cant help i dont have them on here now,ask w3bby he has them in pdf and tiled which helps a lot when printing.i raised the sides on mine from the transom to 2/3 the length of the hull i also flared the area where the deck joins the sides to create spray rails also added strakes underneath too.Cant change the lake no more lakes near [] its not too bad in summer but it can get rough when the wind blows as you can see .

I am wondering if the frames were cut w/o the hollow outs how much heavier would the hull be and how does it affect its handling and performance......my guestimate another 1/2 kg heavier??
