I'm actually looking to build one of the Dumas wood kits but I can't find or not sure if Dumas has the Budweiser. I think I would take a fiberglass hull if it's a good one. I prefer to assemble it myself, not interested in RTR.
Give Dick Caspari a call @ Southern Yachts, Wichita, KS
1-316-685-8611. He has some very light polyester fiber glass hulls of all of the newer 1/8th Budweiser hydro's.
He is the ower of "THUNDERBOAT REPRODUCTIONS" also the president of the model division of the APBA. Great guy to work with as well. Give him a call, his e-mail is [email protected]
