Spray rails

HI Dave
Thanks for taking the time to reply to my query, yes you are correct I will be using a brushless 2200 C3 Lipo so not a lot of weight.
Your advise will be used and I will now add spray rails I did think it would be the case but always a second opinion is always nice. Your Sea Queen looks a beautiful boat and has been on my "list" ever since one of our club members at Bury built one and it looks and handles very nicely.
Thanks again Pete

Spray rails

HI Pete
My Sea Queen needed spay rails along both sides of the hull at the top of the chines. As it is a Les Rowell kit I suspect yours will suit the same. if lkike me you are using brushless with light batteries the model will be floating much higher than when designed in the 60's and as a result there is much more spray produced.
Dave
Live long and prosper
