    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    Should go and get some bait at low tide if the weather is good? Be a good run for it?

    Quick update
    The hull that was designed has been built and all ok.
    Im going to get onto getting mine cut and bent in the next week or so.
    Mates going to build it while I'm away as in 3 wks I will be gone 3 months until end of June, and hopefully ready to fit-out when home.
    Is about 3.55m from memory - 3+2 seater
    Have a couple of powerplant options - Kawasaki 1100 2 stroke, and 215hp Supercharged Seadoo
    Few pump options, 145mm Kawasaki, 155mm Kawasaki and the 155 Seadoo
    Thinking on using the Seadoo engine and pump in the 3.55, and the 1100 and 145 in a lightweight 10ft boat
    North and Sth Island boats as such
    Hope its Ok with George to post this pic up

    I have had a brief thought of a twin engine wee boat. Pair of 750s with big pumps...
    Maybe #3 at some stage but let's not get carried away and sort #1 1st
