Beautiful, congratulations. How did she run with a 9.9 hp engine?

My wife said "If I build a boat, she's getting a divorce."
We're still happily married, but now she just wants "the dam boat out of the garage."

Re: Building the Squirt in St. Petersburg (Russia)
honestly, the engine costs 20 hp .... the speed with one pilot was 45 km / h
Re: Building the Squirt in St. Petersburg (Russia)
I’ll play with the engine settings, the club’s mechanics recommended changing the angle of the engine and the speed increased from 40 to 45 mph. We will see...

Very fine build Aleksey!
The longest journey begins with a single step… then repeat as necessary!
Re: Building the Squirt in St. Petersburg (Russia)
Very nice Aleksey. Congratulations on a fine build and the launch. Now the enjoyment of your efforts is going to be a bigger part of your experience.
Re: Building the Squirt in St. Petersburg (Russia)
Thank you colleagues for your appreciation. The Russians joke to themselves that only children are doing well for us, and everything that is done with our hands is worthless. Apparently this is not so)))). If desired, everything turns out well))). This is really a great experience - the first boat. There are little things left to finish - the lights, the horn and the windshield. Then I think to build an inboard.
Re: Building the Squirt in St. Petersburg (Russia)
Seeing the quality of that Squirt, you could build whatever boat you want.
