I have the molds I made a copy from an original boat but it did not run very good so I made changes and a 2nd mold boat runs good.

Thanks for looking

i still have a MRP Python in my basement ...... it's a little bit overpowered with a 7.5 K/B outboard and it's very tricky to handle it !

@ carl do you remember the canard from russ and michael ( Mr. Boats) that i used to run at the NAVIGA world championship ' 86 in italy ?

[carlnoki]

Alex;

yes i do remember that boat.

it was very fast in the straights but had to go around the turns slow due to the weight of the motor on back.

Hey guys,

Jimmy Eddelman has a set of molds for a canard simular to that. He goes by the name JYD Racing on here.

He is building boats now and would probably build you one. I am not sure what size it is....it seems like it was a 7.5cc size but I could be wrong.
