Ron.
I built the Lauterbach U-36 shovel for myself, & converted that big Vantex Formula hydro for Mark (Mad Racer on this forum.)
But I have built the U-95 for myself also, plus two Executone hulls for other club members & converted another of those Vantex gas hulls for another, with another hull on the bench right now as a work in progress. Blimy!! that's 7 of the things I've had a hand in.

Here's the U-95 working hard for a win after a muffed start & a flip in the second lap. This was from a previous race meeting.

Thanks Doug.
She gets a bit flighty into the wind, but it is a blast to drive.
