Found this browsing on e-bay. I wish I could take on another project...but. It's up to $300 bucks. This would make a cool little boat!<br />

Jcrain, it a 1950's? Hydro-plane boat. Made for an outboard. If I didn't have one project going on, I'd be all over it! The owner doesn't know much about it other than he was told it was an old "Air Force" racing boat??? Here is the link on E-bay<br /><br /> E-bay Hydroplane boat

Djeez, guys....you know better than putting a picture like that on the board. Wimperdink is aching to hang that 225 HP Whumper on something else every month!! <br />Well....he's got the outriggers for his canoe for free and in good style now! Some sharksteeth on it and some air-matresses for target....I'm staying of the water till next summer !!<br />Frank

C'mon Whimperdink, If you don't buy this, it'll slip into nowhere land & we won't be able to follow the progress here on Iboats. I hate to rub salt in your wounds...Dude, it's only 10 hours!<br /><br />

lol you know my wife would give every one of you a piece of her mind if she read this... As for the fishing trip in WI, I just had to cancel my airline tickets for my vacation/trip to go get that uniflite I posted about in other topics. lol sorry folks I'm going to have to pass on that one too. <br /><br />I think pony needs to "pony up" and grab that one since its in his neighborhood.

Re: Check out this project boat.......pic's

YOUR LETTING THE UNIFLITE GO???? <br /><shaking head> what a shame

 

[Wimperdink]

Re: Check out this project boat.......pic's

nope not letting it go... just have to reschedule for a later date... It belongs to my brother so I can reschedule If buisness keeps up at the rate its at, I may just bite the bullet and have it shipped here.

Wimp- I was actually considering it....but I bet my dad would kill me. he's already not happy about my plans this winter to build a wooden boat in our garage.

Re: Check out this project boat.......pic's

He'll be happy to go out on the water in it when you're done though. <br /><br />The ebay boat is one of the weirder ones I've seen that's for sure!
