    Boat stands for large cats and monos?

    I'm looking for low profile stands for a couple hulls. I need one for a 73" cat and one for a 59" mono. I've searched but found nothing like what I have in mind. I just want something simple, like what typically comes with 30-40" RTR hulls. If nothing like this exists, I'll go a totally different direction with a DIY wall-mount solution for these hulls.

    A stand similar to this would be fine:

      I'm looking for something more for display purposes. These hulls are kept in my office.

              I didn't find anything available to buy for resting on a surface, so I went to a wall mount. I ended up making my own, using brackets I found on Aliexpress, and carving carbon fiber plates to whatever shape I needed to cradle the different hulls. I'm away from my office, so I don't have an image right this minute to share of the boats, but I do have a pic of how I did it for a large Mongoose 98 rocket:

                I can flip the brackets 180 Degrees depending on the type of hull, or where it's mounting, vertically, on the wall. It's a fairly versatile method for whatever type of craft you want to mount. And you can make the carbon plates adjustable by pivoting at the top or bottom bolts, to allow tilting it at whatever angle you want. I'll add pic's of how I did this for a boat, later.
