Short clip of the testing. Unfortunately the camera fogged up and most of the footage was just a big blur.

Took the boat out for a test today. It performed even better than expected and was so much fun! :) Got it planing with just a small 4hp motor and up to a maximum speed of 26.2kmh.

The new boat is starting to take shape. Could do with coming up with a name for it - any bright ideas?

talking to a mate at work the other day about a little kids race boat he built once (not for a little kid!), we decided it would be fun to come up with our own designs, build them and have a race. they will be powered by a 4hp outboard and due to the small size and lightweight, hopefully they'll be quite nippy. this is what i currently have planned. its about 2.3m x 1m, will be made from just over 2 sheets of ply and should only weigh about 10-15kg.

Took the Mill Creek out for a quick spin today and had a little play with the camera.

The Mill Creek and Sea Kayak are still for sale. 500€ and 700€ (the sea kayak now includes the rudder system). Or 1000€ if you want them both!

Finally tested the rudder out and it works great! As a special deal, since it's the first rudder I've made, I'll include it with the kayak for the same price of 700€.

I need to clear some space for the next kayak build so I have for sale a 13m PeterLynn venom power kite. Includes bar, lines and harness. Can be used on land or water.

Finally got the rudder finished!

www.customcaiaques.com now has links to translate the site into Portuguese, French, Spanish, German and Dutch. I'm trusting Google with this though, so if anyone can check the various languages to make sure I'm not accidently insulting anyones grandmother I'd appreciate it!
