          c how much I know about boat ..... even I can build

          hehe upgrade program


          Lyon, bro i really like the way you built your cute model boat thats sea worthy also. . .. . .

          and for other peoples information. . ."strakes" is used to produce a clean break in the surface dues provide a better planing in the water and it also provide stability from left to right or vice versa motion. . .and for Lyon, he made a cracker box boat which dont need a strake because it is designed to have a flat bottom surface and it needs a centering fin like a turning fin in the middle of the bottom and not strakes. . .

          hoping this would clear all false informations. . .

          Lyon bro, keep up the good work. . .

            this little boat or design has no stability issue except the water from the side get so high that it splash over the deck.

            BTW what is a turning fin in the middle of the hull another rudder ?

            thanks for your advise

              its not a rudder but it's use is to stabilize the boat from sliding left or right and its not a rudder coz the rudder is after the transom. . .



              this cracker box is a racing version of your boat and hope you can see it clearly the center fin they have. . .

              maybe the CG of your boat is in favor in the transom side thats why the water comes in to your deck special in the aft side. . .

                just an update for my little wooden boat . Finally manage to finish off the basic paint job. I used wood stain and clear spray and surface polishing to get the final color effect.

                The deck line is the nature color of the thin ply I used. I used 1mm masking tape apply over the deck before put on the wood stain. Is not easy but the result is worth all the work .

                    After 3 days of eye poping work finally finish off the deshboard and steering wheel for my little boat ...... 100% scratch build from all material that I can find

                    the steering wheel is made of 1 mm alu tube bent to shape then added 3 layers of diff size heat shrink tube for the rubber grip effect. The center is made of 2 layer of 1/32" thin ply. Not easy but the overall effect is well acceptable. The gauges are all photo print with printer and attach accordingly.

                    all those blink blink deck fixture are ........ lady ear ring diy parts not bad looking on the boat

                        The so call scale handle for the forward and rear engine hatch. Initially thinking using wood just like the smaller bro, then tried with the metal part from those diy ear ring parts. The end result is much better, at least for me. It is a small metal plate with 3 holes so got to cut off one section and file it to shape. The center part is 3 mm round wooden stick. After stain it with wood stain and with a layer of acrylic it looks good.
