Boat Sizes and Description

Championship Winning Design

Finally up to date plans for an advanced, all wood, pickle fork type three point hydroplane hull. Great designs that are being sold to locations all over the world! Equipped with a recessed motor board, designed to be used with factory stock outboard racing motors. Marine Mahogany and Sitka Spruce construction. Computer drawn with many full size patterns. Step by step instructions with dozens of photos and includes information on how to set it up and run. Build a new boat for the price of a used one.
