Ron, looks great - you must be practicing driving it - the turns aren't too wild
Looks like a little torque roll to starboard - might drop the right tab a hair.

They require a driving learning curve to get them around the turns as they lean/unvent the prop/plop down & bite/ and on and on.
Because they're relatively slow they get shunned by the IwannaGoFaster crowd. As an old fart I'm tickeled to run at less than warp speed ('tho I have a few of those as well
)

We had a class of two 1/6 scales and to make the three boat minimum Dick R. entered his Neu powered Gas Skiff (which caught fireOriginally posted by iridebikes247 View PostLooks like a lot of fun would make for some great racing action in race water chop especially.
) at WWVIII last year. Great fun (no we weren't driving blindfolded - they have some charming turning characteristics)
These are SO MUCH FUN. It's a shame that more aren't being rigged and raced. Mine sits on the lonely shelf with no one to play with

Cool I'm curious how does it handle in comparison to the popular designs of today? I feel like it would be a great racing class.
