    New Whip

    Thought I would take some shots before Hugh runs over it next weekend. Prepared for LSH as built by Racer504 from RCU.

          Mike,
          Run over your new LSH I would never do that HaHa. Exactly why I am not painting mine!

              Thought I had one of the guts....Still not finished with the rigging.

              Hugh, If you smash this one I'm going to T-bone your Q boat...sfter all, mine is considerably faster

                It's starting to look like a race boat! Did the sponsons turn out OK?

                  Congrats! That is one beautiful build...

                  I am getting more and more interested in this hull. Please let us know how it runs...

                    Very Pretty. We shall try and nick it up so it matches your other boats!

                    All the best,

                      Mike, the photos don't do it justice! When you brought it by the other day all I could say was WOW! It is absolutely beautiful. The guy who built and painted it for you ROCKS!

                      Mine is just getting started. Trying to think up a good paint scheme for it!

                          If you want a pretty boat....enclose in a glass case and stare at it while your sitting on the couch.

                            Mike I agree the more prop marks and gouges the better!

                              That looks really sweet highndry! I like the color A LOT!

                              Let me ask you, where are you guys getting that stuffing box brace that mounts to the inside of the hull where the stuffing tube comes threw the floor? A brand name, or site would be great as I am ordering parts for my whip build right now. Thanks, Mike
