an 8' hydroplane
Our TINY TITAN is an 8' mini version of competition boats that will provide real excitement for the kids with low powered motors. Building one is simple and requires no building form, and all phases of construction proceed by simple steps. Cost is low because material waste has been kept to a minimum. For best performance driver weight should not exceed 170 lbs.
These "thrill" boats should only be used in smooth or protected waters, free from wind and chop. Always wear a safety helmet and life jacket and keep weight to a minimum for optimum performance and safety. The TINY TITAN makes an excellent beginning project, for youths to build on their own, or with a little help from Mom or Dad.
