    FS- new undrilled carbon fiber 1/8 scale hull

    For Sale - Lone Star Model Boats carbon fiber 1/8th scale. This is a full carbon fiber hull built for me by John Borden (he bought the Muck molds from Steve). I sent John the carbon fiber and had it built with low cut stringers to keep things wide open and can be set up with a separate motor/ESC/batt/RX sub box. This hull will do many different versions from the MHR# 7207/7474 boats like the Bud, Circus, Gilmore Special, A/B Natural light, etc. and with 3 piece cowl can do both full cowl or exposed motor versions. The carbon layup makes it extremely light weighing in just under 5 pounds hull with cowl pieces and should make for a very fast boat. The white coloring is a very thin layer of gelcoat that John uses when laying up the hulls. I had planned on building this hull during the upcoming winter months but a couple other unfinished projects need additional funding. I also have this advertised on the I/W and Rum Runner Racing forums. $400 plus actual shipping costs owns it.

    Also includes spare nose and mid cowl pieces also in carbon, forgot about them earlier. They look just like the ones in the pics.

    SOLD on I/W.

      I'm interested Don. What do you estimate it may cost for shipping to Texas zip code 77493?

        I'll need to have a box made but I have a killer connection, heavy duty double wall box big enough typically runs me about $20 (less than 1/2 the going rate) when I have them made. FedEx Ground is the best rate I found at $55 with $500 insurance so you'd be looking at $75 for shipping.

          Oops!! Just realized I had John make extra front and middle carbon cowl pieces when he did the boat. I typically make it so the rear section bolts on and 'glass the front two pieces together (when I do a full cowl) that remove via catches or magnets. These two extra pieces are also included.
