    1/8 Circus Circus WOF built for FE

    Here's my 1/8 Circus Circus that was the star of this build thread:
    http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...=circus+circus
    (there is a much longer build thread on IW, but I don't know if I can link that here?)

    It started off as a Dumas kit, but ended up 100x better than that! The hull was lightened & windowed as much as possible.
    It weighs less than 8 lbs as shown in the pictures!
    The boat has never seen water!

    Here's the highlights:
    1 piece epoxy cowl
    Newton Sponsons
    Phil Thomas epoxy front canards & rear wings
    Dick Tindall (Virginia Craftsman) turn fin
    1/4 to 3/16 drive cable
    Automotive lacquer paint

    I have not done anything to the boat since I bought it from Mike L. (cybercrxt here on OSE) last spring. The boat was to have a Swordfish 240 esc & a Neu 1527 1.5y (both of which I have)
    I'll only sell the components with the hull or after the hull sells. If I end up keeping the boat I'd like to have everything to assemble it.
    Also if anyone within a couple hours of Milwaukee, WI is interested in the boat, I'd be willing to drive a couple hours to meet for delivery. You won't pay any shipping fee that way.

    Asking $1100 + $50 shipped.

    Thanks, Tim

            I'm interested in the hull, but don't need the motor or speed control. Send me a PM with your best price on it, and we may have a quick deal!

                Also if anyone within a couple hours of Milwaukee, WI is interested, I'd be willing to drive a couple hours to meet for delivery. You won't pay any shipping fee that way. It will take that long to pack it in a box anyway (which I'm not looking forward to )

                  Sweet looking Circus, Mike L. does nice work so whoever gets it won't be disappointed.

                          The motor w/ OSE water jacket & the esc w/ programing card would be $200 each.
                          Any offers on the boat? I'd like to see it go!

                            I would take the boat, motor, and jacket for $800.

                              No thanks, I'll pass on that.
                              Boat is no longer for sale.
