Scratch Build Hydroplane

[jantagg]

This my first effort in designing and building a pickle fork hydroplane. I have built several old school round nose boats in both scale and sport variety. It is a P-Sport 4cell, 29.5 inch hull make of plywood with the cowling being formed of balsawood.

Here are pictures of the boat running on the HOTMBC pond last Saturday compliments of Jay Turner. You will notice that, in the one picture I slow down for baby ducks.
