a 16 1/2' inboard speed and ski boat
The HOT ROD is a tough boat intended for speed. It's been used in competition and scored a string of successes. Because of its rugged construction, the HOT ROD always comes back for more. She is an excellent ski boat as well. Pack in a big engine and connect to a reliable, efficient vee drive system, and that prop will really dig in and move out. While not designed for rough waters, your HOT ROD is still a safe boat when handled within the limits of its design. The boat is not only designed for speed, but also for ease of building by the amateur.
