Default RE: Turbine powered miss bud

56",,,NIIICE! My next project will be a big one like that. There is a actuall turbine powered cat that races on the off shore curcuit. If I could get one big enough, maybe 2 turbines driving a shaft on a 1/5-1/4 off shore cat hull.

Why werent you impressed by the thrust drivin boats? What was thier defect? What kind of coarse were they running?

Turbine powered boat is next on my list of projects. I just finished a 1/4 scale turbine car.

The hull is a 56" fountain from Performance International. I have not decided which turbine engine I will use but it will be one with a gear reduction box. I have seen thrust driven R/C turbine boats in action and in my opinion they are not worth the effort.
