building wavechopper30 (first time)

[cwbwake]

after alot of research all i've done is confuse myself i think. I have a
wavechopper30 hull that i bought years ago. it is bare no stringers etc , i want to build it but never built before , i feel quite capable just want to make sure i do it right . i was thinking of using either a .21 or .32 o.s pullstart engine , either an inline strut/rudder (strudder) or a speedmaster stinger type strut , unsure ? can people offer up advise as to assist in my build ? and if anyone has any specific information on the wavechopper30 . pics would be appreciated . thanks

make it electric and you will get more information out of this community..... there are only a few guys on here that have nitro/gas boats....... the hardware is really at your desgression...... its more what you would prefer

just curious have you ever ran nitro before?

[cwbwake]

yeah , i have/had many nitro trucks and cars (all kits)and an rtr boat which i have tweaked a little , not new to nitro , never built a boat and a little hesitant as i don't have on hand help , if i come into an issue , I love building ,but also dont want to drop $500 into a boat I'm not happy with , especially when I can grab a supervee27 nitro and upgrade as i go , still to decide , i only want the boat to take when i go wakeboarding

to be honest with you I don t know what type of water proffing you would use, I normally use min wax out door urethane but I dont know if its fuel proof. as I only run electrics. I sold all my nitro stuff as i got sick of cleaning up the nasty fuel residue from the models.

You could also try asking questions on the International Waters forum. That is what all the fuel guys at the lake go on. http://www.intlwaters.com/
