Where do I start...
More years ago than I can recall, I built the above 36" long. Then work and life took over and eventually retirement arrived and my thoughts went back to model boats.

Thinking that 36" would look good as 72"... I dug out the old plans and "fiddled about" and I've built the hull...but what about the engine. I had a newish hedge cutter (am breaker) with a two stoke air cooled...and yes...... installed it in the hull with the idea of ...well I'll leave it there as in the meantime.... moved to North Wales and IS there a pond to sail it when it's finished????

There was a lake at Telford that accommodated IC's but can't find one up here.

Any suggestions or do I nick the starter motor and battery off the car and bolt it in?
