Hey Gary,

What's the possibility of this one going to market??? It's interestingly Ugly Enough to sell many units!! I forget who built them but in the 90's there was the Mongoose and it was a screamer..

Later!!

PS.

Let us know how she runs asap?? Pat

 

[Gary Murcott]

Pat it is ugly but when finished it will look better I wanted a rigger that was easy to work on and build chances of selling next to none just a hobby by the time I get to run this one you will have forgotten about it

 

[Steve Seebold]

I have to agree with Gary. I started making running gear for gas boats 5 or 6 years ago. It wasn't long before mo hobby became my job and then it wasn't fun any more so I stopped running my own boats.

I have only had a boat in the water 3 times in the last 5 years.

I still make a few parts but it's no longer a job and boating is starting to be fun again.

That sure is one ugly duckling lol what are you going to run for rear sponsons / 2 or 1 shoe under the center.

Your rig looks good should fly in the right hands LOL

I'll have to drop by one day when i'm in the area .

Hope your well and good luck on the build

 

[Gary Murcott]

Two shoes I think I am starting to get a complex not sure I want to run an ugly boat may have to go back to the other rigger

If it's quick everyone will think it looks bad ass instead of ugly.

Thanks everybody for your replies I have fallen out of love with my rear exhaust rigger and decided to go with my side exhaust hope I maid the right choice

 

[john urbowicz]

nice job gary. what is the hull length?

 

[Gary Murcott]

Thanks John the hull is 37 inches long and 6 1/2 wide the total length of the boat from sponson tips to transom is 42 inches with an after plane of 28 inches weight ready to run 13 lbs this was the first one from the mold the next one will be lighter

 

[john urbowicz]

thanks Gary.

Gary I really liked the rigger that some said was ugly. Did you ever run it?

 

[Gary Murcott]

I have run this rigger but with a set of Andy Brown sponsons it ran ok

 

[Michael Hopkins]

I like both riggers you do very good work , I really like the yellow one but once the other one gets painted I'm sure it will look as bad azz .

Happy new year
