Hi
i have a rather custom built racer from the 50s, looks similar to a crackerbox / wildthing type shaped boat. It is of ply construction. my father built it years ago but never got round to adding motors etc. (no radio then was there?)

As its a custom i have no idea what sort of rudder system, off set, straight etc. i want this as a working general boat for my son, not racing so needs to steer both ways!

I have a 540 and 700 motor, neither are fitted, nor is a propshaft. The hole for the prop leaves the transom at the base not under the boat.

Sorry but im not overly familiar with terms used, so please exuse my ignorance. Im in the UK. i have no photos as of yet.

Thanks
