Thanks for joining evilledave, duckkiller, and Amphiboman. I want to welcome you to the site. I would like to know
the type of boat that all our members have. If it,s homemade or manufactured. What type engine powers it? ect.
If you don't have a mini, and want to build one or buy one, please ask questions and we will help with answers.
Thanks again for becoming a member of miniairboatassoc.com. Chuck :)

Yep, he owns it now. He bailed me out for the time being. I just got out of the hospital and really don't feel like any projects right now. I'll start later getting a piece here and there till I get things together. But for now I just don't have it in me. Later, Cajun

did you ever get it running and try it out ?

Yea he had the motor going pretty good. I never did find elec. start for it, so it got sold first and I was gonna change up to a Briggs, then came the really big set back ( hospital) and I decided to bail out completely for a while. If and when I get back to normal and want to try again, I have some good folks on the side lines ( Chuck, David, Gold_hunter and Phillip ) to help me get things collected. I will try it again but a little different route next time.Gold_hunter done a really nice job on that Rotax, he knows his $#!+ . Later, Cajun

I bet that lil sled would've moved good w/ that rotax , that boat duckhunter just sold , was a guy I know back here in louisiana , lives right around the corner from me it flew w/ a 503 rotax and it was all 1/8 w/ 1/4 teflon on it and built like a bathtub , from what duck said it handled like one too , but it did about 45

Yea , I am sure it would have flew with that light little hull, chrome molly rigging, it was all really light. I wanted Gold_hunter to take it out the first few times to tell me what not to do with it,LOL. It should've been alittle bad@$$ boat. Oh well, someone will get some use from it soon or later. Later, Cajun

was it aluminum or glass ? what did it weigh ? could it be setup w/ a briggs

It was glass. I am guessing with the molly rigging it would be lucky to weigh 200 lbs. I am sure it wouldn't take much to convert the motor stand to except a briggs. Get in touch with gold_hunter and ask him about that. He has a whole lot more knowledge of that stuff than I do. Stay safe, Cajun
