Thanks guys. I have a 40hp yamaha so I would like to try a planing hull first. I did find one that I liked on...
It would be to cruise and fish. My main objective is to get a smooth ride with little power and a relatively small boat (14' to 18'). Nothing to...
I am interested in building a small power catamaran. I have not been able to find many plans. There are a few such as Glen L but the tunnel is...
I think Glen L has a conversion for a vertical shaft and an old outboard leg. It uses pulleys so that you can run a larger prop. I might try that...
I have a small 14' fiberglass skiff that I would like to try something like that on. Do you have any other info about the setup or a website where...
as long as you fully hydrate all the portland cement, the less water you use the stronger the structure will be. you may be surprised how little...
I built a concrete canoe in college. We tried several design mixes. Portaland cement is very heavy! Depending on the strength you need, some of...

I am not sure I understand the IPS question. I had a buddy in the national quard that joined up after finishing in his tour in the navy sub...
I just thought that moving the prop further aft, to approxiamately the same location that an outboard prop is that their might be some performance...
I am considering an inboard. I have always had outboards but I am looking for something different and have been trying to educate myself on...
If you are starting from scratch, how do you determine the ideal prop size? I mean either designing a hull or a new boat with no engine or other...
tunnel design info seems to be hard to come by. I assume that the shape you are using is half of a cone so that both the width and the height gets...
[IMG] This is similar to what I was thinking but could not find any specs or comparisons to other setups. If you go to the rudder page and...
usually I see both the prop and the rudder completely under the boat. I have seen some with the rudder bolted to the transom and the prop flush...
Yes, it is very difficult to find info for single inboards. I would think that with fuel and outboard prices increasing that there would be more...
With only performance in mind, where is the best place to locate the prop for a straight drive. Most single inboards have the prop well under the...
