I am building a 1950's high speed utility racing Hydroplane. Tbe boat was a class racer. Mine will seat five people as a utility sports boat. The original drawings and all measurements are in Imperial. It is 13 feet OAL, the beam is 63 inches. It will weigh approximately 250lbs. Powered by a 30 hp motor. Plywood sides and decking, Jarrah framing, multiple beveled (chines) for high speed turns, flat planing areas.
