    wooden mono boat

    One of the earlier boats my father build. Not much to say, the wood surfaces are smooth and just need to be painted or clear-epoxied. The boat is fully capable once it's built.

    Things I have added to it are a carbon fiber inlay and expandable foam. The hatch is primered but can be sanded back to bare wood with little effort.

    Dimensions: 42" long (with the tail wing section, 41 without), 11" wide at the widest point. Not sure about the weight but it is not heavy, made of pine wood.

    The boat model was created in a 3d program, then used as blueprints to create the actual wooden shell. The quality overall is good. A few inaccuracies. But the symmetry and balance are on point, and the boat is definitely sea-worthy.


    Price: $150 shipped

          It's still there. Maybe blocked on your computer?

                No, this is all custom. Just to mention, i did model this in a 3d program and gave him the blueprints. Some elements were inspired by the watersnake boat like the tail section. So, this will run well if built because I have built the same hull and tested it and it's really stable and fast in water. I will also be selling that one soon (ready to run or artr).

                          The reason is that photobucket is blocked on some computers. I can't see the pics either on my work computer. There is nothing I can do, imageshack has the same issue.
