Just need to add some wheels and I think it'd be good to go.




Actually, looks interesting, I'd be into trying one of them out if the chance came up for sure.

Now ya got me curious... they seem to turn on a dime. could the front and rear steering be adaped to a normal 3 wheel buggy? I know linkages would have to run to the rear wheels, which with the space and weight confines of a buggy would be no small feat, but...... just toying with the eternal quest to build a better mousetr..... errrr buggy!

They turn like a buggy. That's how they were designed. So, designing a buggy to turn like a boat that was designed to turn like a buggy, well, hmmm, not sure how that works out.

Read my review of the boat on the nabx.net site.

It looks like the front fins are on a way different turning ratio or something, looks like it's got way more input on the rear end of it.

Pablo, I've got another one on the way. Should be one of the first with the larger volume hulls. Come on down and we'll take it out in the Puget Sound.
