    Invention of a new hull and drive design

    Well the hull is a Hydro&marine Firebold, and some MTC hardware. But It will be put into use in a very different way.
    As seen in the pic. it will have very little lift in the rear. Hopefully the water from the prop can help out..?.. COG I think its called, cold be "anything" between 20-40 %.
    You may ask: why destroy a hull ?..well I say why not ?

    What a completely bonkers idea, I love it and wish you all the best with the build.

          Had it in the water today..It can float and the steering is great. But had some connection problems, (I think)... Will first have time to solve the issues in about 1o days.
          So for now I cant really tell how it behaves at "some" speed.

            My next "tunnel" project will probably be the MHZ Lucas oil.

            I have the hull and all the hardware. So it wont cost me anything. The reason is that it seems to be "impossible" to make that boat run really well, (youtube). It has a tendency to jump up and down.

              Hmm. The electric worked today..But not a lot of speed. In the spring I will be shortening the tunnel. As it is now the lift is much to much, and maybe the water from the prop gets kind of "stuck" in the tunnel.
