Joe,

Can I order my boat from Mike now? I can wait on the HW because I will have to finish the boat.

[Joe Petro]

Mike Walker is still building them. It seems that people want pre-built kits more in the summer...

He is a week or so behind on building as we have been hitting him hard with regular orders.

The kits are available now on the site.

I got the a/c on my Diet Pepsi and I am building O/B Riggers

I just got started

 

[RonShaw]

Awesome news Joe and Mike. You would not believe the number of PMs I have received about this new product and questions about mine. If I can help anyone once you receive your kit/boat, let me know. If you love outboards, you are in for a treat!!!!.....

 

[mike walker]

I have not found a kit from Zippkits that went together bad. But this kit is so well cut and goes together so well you will really enjoy it

:angry: I'm going to mount my outboard engine to one if the kids if I don't get mine soon....

 

[mike walker]

Oh man not the kids

This kit was a fantastic idea. There is nothing easier than running an O.S. outboard. Easier than a gas engine. Sorry gas guys, it's true.... No shaft to lube. No shaft to remove every day. No engine bay to get dirty with fuel. No starter belt. No blown exhaust o-rings. No bad carb diaphrams. O.S. engines start all the time. We had needle problems all last weekend on our nitro boats from the changed weather, but my O.S. ran on the same needle setting as last year. A Zippkit O/B rigger is going to be a great, fast, reliable race boat....

Any builder plans for this rigger?

Joe, FE O/B in the works?

[David Santistevan]

Question: Wouldn't the current O/B design work just fine with and FE powerhead ?

Not really concerned about the transom....more about where the bulkheads are located inside the tub....

 

[David Santistevan]

Now that I think about it the tube on the FE version of the 21 is much taller and narrow to handle the battery plus your right the bulkheads would need to be a little different.
