Thanks Moofy! ;)
Dont worry Im on to it, just deciding on wether to try a new sponson design or go with a simple shape like the riggers etc. :huh:

Got some cloth yesterday so covering wont be a problem now.
I will be using light ply where I can, rear deck, rear sides, sponson insides etc.
Then cover the whole thing and blend all the foam to the timber! B)

Hi Oz,
I can hardly wait, when I do things it seems to take ages. You seem to be able to crank them out like pies. :(
Keep up the good work.
Moofy :)

Would be nice to set it up with a proper rc marine engine, may have to find a cheap Zen and pipe! :(
