This is close to being complete and Id call it a 90% kit-- as its 90% built and has 90% of the parts here to finish it out
300$ plus shipping
.12 JAE sponsons--built with all overhangs by the book, right side has the center two turn fin dowels pre drilled BUT not threaded for the fin yet (done on a drill press)and the overhang has been relieved for the turn fin they are epoxy sealed 2 coats
TUB-- not sealed yet as I have not mounted any servo blocks or pre-drilled anything(kind of like painting I seal after I mock things up), built by the book except the balsa tri-stock was replaced with square stock (either basswood or spruce cant remember) along the bottom and transom, used the balsa tri-stock under the top skin- ski is built and sealed inside but not mounted on the tub
The booms are not mounted or drilled so who ever gets it can set it up how they like also made some aluminum sponson plugs for it I believe I set them to go inside the sponson holes .300 deep to set the sponsons a bit wider
hardware--New zippkits .12 turn fin, custom rudder and bracket (mounts to the side of the tub instead of the transom, non pick-up), strut is a close copy of the zippkits strut only real difference is its lighter by a gram or two even without the lightning holes and the bottom is shaved a bit more to sit it lower on the ski (will not make these for anyone so DO NOT ASK)
the engine--modified zippkits flywheel, octura flex-hex for .150 shafts, water cooled OS 12TR with a proboat .18 carb modded to fit the engine case ( will come with the orignal OS 10j slide carb and stock air cooled outer head) engine has been run but not in a boat it came out of a very low run time tc3 and will come with a TC3 header and zippkits engine mounts
feel free to ask any questions you may have and I will add pictures here after I get back to the house.
reason for the sale is im funding some electric projects
sponsons and booms just slid together for pics
