Hi. I have a really nice OPS with tuned pipe ideal for a tethered hydroplane application but I've googled myself out trying to source plans from anywhere. Anyone out there familiar with these boats (UK seems to be the most interest) and able to point me in the right direction? Much appreciated. Thx

What about this. Find a hull you like at Newton Marine and modify it for tether running. His plans are 1/8th scale R/C and use .67/11cc sized engines, but if you scale the plans up or down, any engine can be used. His website is www.newtonmarine.com if you want to take a look

My pleasure, glad to be of help
Funny thing is I was just surfing the other day, looking for something else and happened to come across that site, took a while to find it again once I'd seen your question.
