Hi all, I have finished making a new hull. It is hydroplane and has a motormount and prop shaft glued in already. I'm sure you all know the hydroplane style but just to refresh you it is basically a flat bottomed hull with two 'pontoons' for stability. It has no gearing on it, and it has a prop fitted, M4 size. I am not sure if it will float, lol, but the pontooons are made out of foam, so they won't sink. I used some micro hydro plans and converted them into normal size, 1/10. It is made out of balsa wood and has been painted with a few coats of gloss blue paint. There is a rudder which is not yet fitted but it should be fairly easy to. I have never had a boat before so it is my first one. I decided I'd make one 'cause it would be more fun, but now I have run out of money so I'm gonna have to sell it before I can use it. It has no motor or any electrics. I think that i would sell it for about $30 but I'm in england so you will have to pay postage for it. PM me.
I'll get some pics soon.
