There are lots of old SeaDoo and other PWC hulls out there. They can be FREE or very low cost.
How about a father child project and you convert one of these into a race boat?

Dillon???? Great father and son project...... a proven hull design without the styrene fumes lol.

I think the PWC dealy IS cool...don't get me wrong...but if you want a cheap GT30 boat it's staring us right in the face. I don't think the hull being made of wood is an issue give given there are only 2 850cc boats in t850 so tailoring the rules to what is available for the class isn't such a big deal. Just throwing it back out there :)

Yeah always thought the dillon boats would be a cool project. I also have a pwc hull sitting with a blown up engine (cheap yamaha engines!).

Either way Dok just tell me what you want to build. I'm sure I can get around you with OMC power in either! :mrgreen:
