Looking good, I think it will be the same for the engine and pipe compo for your new missile rigger, Would you like to try a full mod CY engine? I heard it would pull a "full mod" rigger into the 100 mph zone...LOL

I dont know if a speed deamon will be in the cards for this one Mike said it will run in the 70s its gona get the motor out of the green Falcon and the CC 0 band pipe.I like the out of the box design the shot from the front showes just how diffrent it looks than most riggers.Shes gona be for roundy round.

Nice looking rigger Jake not many guys run those over here ,probably because we dont get many flat lakes to run on.I might build one next year of my own design using glass just for fun running,will need to handle rough water to an extent though.

This is my stock bottom of the sponson, it has a 1-7/8" wide ride pad, I have a mod pair coming soon, the new one has a few changes from the stock one for less dragging. a sponson is made by foam and 1/16" to 1/8" thick marine plywood.

Jake, what prop are you going to run on your rigger? I tried many such as 6719/3, 7520/2 and 7521/2.

Your good starting rigger prop is 6719/3, it's good for racing and playing, it's also easy to unload, H50 prop was popular before especially for the Quickdraw powered Stryker cat.

This was my OLD rigger from about 2001 until 2005

It did me proud by breaking & resetting the 6 lap G-1 NAMBA gas rigger National record 3 times in the 5 years she was in the stable.

It is a low production 3 point known as a D&D rigger. A hybrid of a pinkert coyote with no rear sponsons. Cowl was off an Aeromarine stinger.

This was a GREAT boat !!

You're right Scott, Richard is doing a special pair of sponson for me, the sponson width is only 2" and its ride pad is a very very low drag, I'm curently running this rigger at 81-82 mph with the stock sponsons and hopefully that new one can bring me a couple extra miles...LOL
