A boat used for circle racing usually have left hand steering as most race courses are left turn circuits. The thinking being that if the boat were to flip, the driver from the right hand driver position , would pass all the way from the right side to the left side exiting, through the hull on that side of the boat. Inboard ski boats tend to chine with the rotation of the engine, being run from either the front or rear of the motor. Clear as mud? Bob

Sadly, I am considering being done building.

Don't give up just yet. You may really surprise yourself. I have no use of my left arm from birth and at times it is extremely frustrating, but if you take it a little slower there is always a way to overcome these situations. Best of luck in your recovery. Bob -
Where did you order them from? Thanks Bob.

Right, so when someone sends me a PM, I come to the MCM web, & unless that person that sent me the PM happens to be online when I am online I would have no way to answer their PM?

Thank you Peter. So unless the person that I am trying to reach is on the MCM forum , I have no way of getting their E-mail address in order to respond to them ? Bob.

Hi: Apparently when someone P.M. s me I cannot just hit the reply button after I type in my response . I have sent out several yesterday but were never received by the person who sent it to me, as I guess I do not their E-mail address. How do I go about correcting this. Thanks Bob

Anyone built the recent 1965 Lincoln as a wagon?

Great work. Unbelievable detail. That rear fin thing is indeed called a cavitation plate, and the rear of the boat is called the transom. In the pic that you show the cavitation plate is adjustable while driving, some earlier flat bottoms had a stationary cavitation plate . In boat racing the more boat out of the water, the faster the speed. Also great colors. Thanks for posting . Bob

Fantastic. So well detailed & that interior is outta the park.

Well done. Bob

Thanks all for the kudos. The engine is the six from the AMT 51 Chev . In order to use the extra frame, you do need to make a couple of very simple crossover pieces. But I did build 3 complete cars from this kit. Thanks for your interest. Bob
