A .45 hmmm... I am not sure If the 24" version 1 will take that big of an outboard just yet but, I will be making two differant other sizes once I get around to It. I had to make changes to the transum width for my power/hardware goals at 24".
Version 1 Is for small eletric power or small/medium nitro Inboard/outboard power.
Version 2 just might be big enough to run a inboard gasser.
The coolest part Is the rudder will have a merc 260 cowling and a offshore mid with water that comes out of the back.21' Douglas Skater

My son has a Villian EX maybe we can swap the guts out of. But I'll tell you this if it floats with the .45, its going on

never too much hp
24" is the same size as my dumas hot shot sprint (abs). pretty crazy with a hot/modded 3.5 ob . your 24" stv will be insane with a 7.5! but maybe just right . if common laws of physics can explain it, then it ain't fast enough. i'm definately interested in an ob version. 9 boats, and they're all 3.5 ob tunnels, no sense in stopping now.

I have an old prather 32" racing tunnel. I'd like to just unbolt the radio box and move it over. The new hull just needs an open slot to drop the whole thing in. i have to measure the width but its about 2.5 inches wide and about 10" long. The transom jackplate is about 2''x 2"

I don't have a price yet.
stvhelmI have an old prather 32" racing tunnel. I'd like to just unbolt the radio box and move it over. The new hull just needs an open slot to drop the whole thing in. i have to measure the width but its about 2.5 inches wide and about 10" long. The transom jackplate is about 2''x 2"
The transum height at this time Is 1 3/8" tall by 3" wide.
I can drop the transum down on one of the first few I make after I mold the first one. No problem.
I have the transum up a bit for a adjustable strut and the transum still has that angle to the bottom of It. It's cool.
I have a friend has tunnel with a outboard. I will call him and get him to bring It by to measure.
I can change up the deck a bit If it where for a outboard but, the rudder will have a merc cowl...21' Douglas Skater
