Default RE: 4th boat build. Mini-Kaze Stepboat

Skin ribbing on top is done now. Whole frame is sanded down and almost ready for skin. I need to mount the electronics and get the cables glued in and soldered. Having a hard time sorting out the engine mount - I wanted to mount the engine so the weight of the engine itself is balanced to the mount, but I will probably have to use a Radial mount for that. I might mount it upright to start with and make a new mount later using a radial mount. The jury is still out on that one.

Anyway.. a pic of the progress..
