    No, it is not very stock.

    You can make them fairly fast fairly easy tho...

    Here it is on the same body of water when it was MUCH smoother,

        Thank you, it's still has more work, turns out my new version has a flaw, the bottom falls off! I used a thin metal plate on the bottom of this version, where as the last version had a 1/8" aluminum skid plate. The new plate basically peeled off yesterday on a different and more rocky stream. She still doesnt leak though.

        Lipos are going to have to wait, I'm getting married this summer and unfortunately I think I've got to work with what I have.

        This brings up another point, Steven can you make Offshore Electrics have a wedding registry? I think a nice catamaran would look good on the gift table.
        BOATS CAN FLY AND SHOULD!
