info on dumas sport40 eagel kit...

[misshydro]

Misshydro, why didn't you tell Bill why you wanted the boat kit? Do you recognise this from your own website thread?

Ok guys I'm building a dumas sport40 wood hydro kit...I'm doning this to prove some guys wrong,that I can build wooden boats...Its about close to half way built...its been about a week into

Seems to me that you took the kit on false pretences, as it was offered in a gift exchange thread, not a free "one-up" one. I think this is another good example of why others should let you build this kit WITHOUT HELP

HJ,,I'm not going to stoop to your level...If you dont have anything nice to say ?Then stay out of my thread....I'm hear to talk and learn about building boats..not to hear you trashing me...

Stoop to my level? I think not. I got that off YOUR THREAD IN YOUR FORUM that you probably went over and deleted as soon as you finished posting here. I believe that also explains why you want the Eagle done yesterday as well. You want to get it done before I can get a boat finished, not that I care. As far as I'm concerned, building a kit is something anyone can do. Try building from plans and really show us something. BTW, in case you didn't notice, I never cut you down in either of these posts, I presented evidence to ulterior motives and asked two questions that you refused to answer. I leave judgement to the others that read this thread as I'm done with you. Epoxy sealing a Sullivan fuel tank? What a joke :lol:

The fuel tank size depends on the motor and nitro % (higher nitro>>>>richer needle>>>more fuel burned). If you run a MAC 45 on 60% fuel, 12 oz will run out on lap 4........ LOL. Seriously 15 oz is what I run in my MAC45 powered hulls. I also start at 1:30 on the clock.

The anks are best if put exactly on the CG so it does not change with fuel burn, hence the saddle tanks on either side of the motor.

I run a Mac 45 in my PT sport 40, 14 oz tank.....MAN! Its CLOSE! Wouldnt mind having another ounce or two! Need to stick a hopper tank in it if i could find a place to put it!Same deal on the start time...

man having a hard time loading pics tonight...wont loadup for me...well I'd knocked the front helper runner down,it about 1/8 tall thats with 1/16 ply on it,from the main sponson runners....Plus I'd knock out the floor where the drain pan set at too..now I wont have to worry about fly wheel or belt being to close to the floor anymore..No going to skin it this weekend.. just going to finish the insides and make those hatches,if I run those saddle tanks setup......

Are you out of upload space? Try managing you pics in your profile.

yours looks great grim!!! Yes I do have my helper pads grounded down wright...now after I'd looked at yours.. Looks like your running a front fuel tank too...maybe I better retink this thing on fuel tank location?..Grim I did keeped that drain/valley pan on the bottom..was told it a great cheap cheat..took out the wood above it.. now its a deep pan,no more worries about flywheel and belt being to close to the floor..tnrcboatracer..I used to upload the pics to photobucket then go to rcu and post them on there site.. then copie from rcu to save on my computer...pic link wont work.. was doing them threw attach this file at the bottom..now it wont do it,say the file is to big.. was working wright until tom changed the site again to this green thream... cant even loadup a link eighter,keeps saying link is broken when you click to that link I'd posted..

Glad to see you putting in hatches. Rememer those are not necessarily dry stores for the tanks so make sure everything around them is glued good so nothing leaks into the next bay. Check your seams there.

I was looking through my eagle pics and I don't know how much you've thought about hardware yet but found a large size Octura cast aluminum rudder bracket fits on the transom. Might be very close on getting nuts to clear because some of the inside bottom is raised from the doubler plate, but could be a possibilty for you and the size of it seems to match the hull pretty good. I bought speedmaster for mine so thats what my hull is cut for, this came with an auction.

Looks good.

I load the pictures to my business website and then link to them using the "Insert Image" function.

MissHydro, the "insert image" function worked using the file properties from rcuniverse.

like to know how to do that..got my other one working..did know theres like a fuel gage for pics files and I cleared them out..Ok as it looks,I got the wrong dang fuel tanks!!! from the pics/blue print it looked like a sullivan oz slant tank..I might be able to make the ss-8 work...The ones that are suposed to be in it are the so-8..wondering if they are the soft tanks?.. Grim did you plum the water cooling outlet like its in the instructions? out the left sponsons side???heres what I got done so far,,need to cut blue foam for floation and two miner things and I'm ready to skin it...also been bizzy working on my aeromarine rigger..

 

[Grimracer]

Water exi will be out the top of the cowl..or out the Transom..

Sullivan S.O. tanks are oval when looking at the end. I put my water outlet just like the instructions. It is forward of everything and out of the way. Any place behind the transom of the sponsons will be hard to see if your getting water.
