    Today we did a photo shoot and video. How will the finished film to show you. 60hp engine is economical option, but it surprised me very positively. The next engine will be bigger but I do not know yet how.

    Motor same as a guy here with a old G3 and it simple runs great! Glad to hear came out better than expected..(or "the plan WORKED!) Helmet off to ya!

    But ya just gave me a DAMN good idea! Those rear solid mounted bumpers! My Flatty build has 12 inch sides, low profile if you will, and when launching our launch it will float almost under the dock. No problem my slip, but its doesn't sit in the salt water anyway as the "dogs boat" always slipped anyway. Heres a pic from when it was rigged, rebuilt crank up IL6 on and a break in under load in the water. Boats?..always a work in progress right?
    Wish the best my friend, and ya done damn well the boat build!

    Hi!
    ...back after the break. Now we are building another unit H1, it will be made on carbon fiber and epoxy resin.


    I made a new seat...

    You need to incorporate a foot throttle into your hull. Being a pad vee design she would be better having both hand on the wheel for balancing on the pad. Also blinker style trim so your hands stay on the wheel also. Very sweet modern looking boat. H1 Stealth suits her as she looks like a Stealth Bomber look. very cool!! The new Evinrude would look great on your hull they have that futuristic looking cowl with chiselled look like your hull.

    Agree! But I still can't get used to (never will) the sideways logo...

    I agree . They should just have the letter E before the HO all done normal. Ill bet that H1 with a 150 HO like this one in same colour Gel with blinkers and a foot would be a very very fast hull and LOADS of fun to drive. 30 pitch prop and off ya go. Being a pad Vee if you put any more power on her you will have to take one hand of the wheel to slow down and from anything over 70mph that could be disastrous without a foot and trim on or beside the wheel.

    That new Evinrude sure looks heavy...

    The boat looks great, and that windshield really matches the boat.
    Great job!
