My Boats - - Everglades type and hydro
Ok Gents!!! These are my babies!!!!
The first boat with the black gel coat hull is a .25 powered 100% airboat!!! No water rudder just air rudder!!! She turns on a dime!!
the huge verticals took some time to get used to at first. It acted like a huge sail when running and sometimes forced the boat to whether vane in to the wind. Me and my freinds have a blast with it. Before the engine was mounted in the mid position and it had a high center of gravity. I modified it by pushing it back a full 5 inches and droping it down a full 2 inches. Also i inverted the O.S. 25 sf and install a hirobo heli muffler to further drop the cg. I have never capsized it since!!!( knock on wood LOLOLOLO) Believe me i tried.
The second boat it a hydro type boat that i got from a freind. He had some trouble with it and i offered to take it off his hands and have a go with it.

No.... you've got to first load them on a sever somewhere . Like say , one of those freebie sites , or your own that most ISP's give you ( most of them give you either 5 or 10 megs of webspace for free )
