        Pretty cool.
        Are y'all building one at a time or side by side?

                I would think the size you are building is a one person boat? You think a 4x10 with a 35hp would do two people good?

                  I had a 1060. 10'long and 5 foot wide with a 50something hp motor. It did ok with 2 people but would really scoot running it solo. I could push my truck down the road with it and after too much beer and a little rain I could do donuts in the yard with it.

                    That sounds like just about the right amount of beer.

                        I don't remember the specs but it was a direct drive wooden prop.

                          Here is the build I did on another forum. The site is really helpful too if you haven't seen it yet.

                              So cool. When hooked together will the rudder on one steer it ok?

                              Stumbled across the dragon fly airboat after watching the posted video. Those are cool also

                                Tied together they will only be used with a troll motor for bow fishing
