I found that using an end mill and solid material works good and saves a lot of time if planning to build a mold, I have done a couple that way one 30 inches and the other 36

here's some dimensions off 3 of my boats:
dumas hot shot-3'' W X 2 3/4" H X 3 7/8" TTT
top speed-2 7/8" W X 2 1/2" H X 3" TTT
top speed 2-2 3/8" W X 2 3/4" H X 3 1/2" TTT
height and width are the actual transom/ motor mount area sizes, and TTT(to the top) is from the table to the top of the transom, with the bottom of the rear of the sponsons on the table/total height. these are all tunnels, so height is from top of tunnel to top of transom. hope this helps.

Im interested in something like this. Either nitro outboard or brushless electric outboard would be fun. Got to see what if I still have my nitro outboard stuff. My old 7.5 had trim and a jackplate that was controled by the radio. Took me forever to make it all work right, so Im sure I didnt get rid of it. If you make a Liberator I would be all over it too.

Those are my plans Redneck! Nobody has ever made the scale boats like these before.

I don't think It will break any records but, It should be fun enough!

Thats why Im interested. You never see scale tunnels like the boats we own. There are scale versions of race hydo's, but not anything like a boat I own, or will own. If you are able to do a good price (not meaning cheap, but not too high) I will get one from you. If nothing more, it will go on my mantle as a conversation piece. The old hydo I had, I kind of dressed it up closer to a production boat, then made a cowl for the motor that looked like the old 2.5 260 cowl. It was a little too big, but it got the boat more attention than anything. The guy who bought it from me didnt want it running, just a display, so I made a fake motor for it that looked like a 15" offshore mid Merc. External cable steer and everything. Only reason I sold was the boat didnt look right to me. Something like this I would really like.
