    two more coats of wax and then PVA. I am going to have to figure out the attachment of the sponsons, it will be a lot like the WE.

                  And look what my brother found me, claims it was off some Bigfoot toy truck. It may fit on Randy and be lighter than the one behind it

                      One of them anyway. I think Randy has sort of a block melding in there somewhere.

                        What scale are the V8 motors and where do I get one? Looking for one for my 40" jet boat. Cheers, Steve

                          That block/deck mold was started, but not finished yet.

                          I fitted the main body of the boat last week before I caught the flu. Luckily I was over my sickness by Xmas.

                            Glad you got over it in time Randy. That is usually my trick, two days before the day I will catch something nasty.
