This is for a winter project, so figured I should start posting now.

Looking for a micro mystic style cat. The H&M seems better, but would interested in an iceberg from MHZ. I think I would cut it and widen the tunnel on the myz by 1 to 1.25" so help the tendency to roll.

I am looking primarily for a hull only.

Let me know what you have or ideas.

Thank you! Brian

OK, after further picture searches and research, I am narrowing this down to looking for a MHZ Iceberg. I am going to be cutting this hull up so would prefer to buy a hull only if someone has a used one to save me a few $$$$!

Thank you, Brian

Well, I looked at that, but couple of things. The $30 price is awfully nice!

I modified the hatch on my 15" sea rider with closed cell foam, so now it closes, seals and is secure with just one finger nut. I hate taping hatches! I am not into racing, just sport running. So I want to modify the iceberg to have a sealing hatch.

I am going for a certain look also. The iceberg is the closest thing to it without going for a scratch build.

I am an engineer, so I just CANT do things the easy way!!!!

The micro scat is a great boat and I considered it, but it is not 100% what I want.
