Wow - you have the Allyn Sea Fury twin outboard on the transom - a very nice and rare motor!
Will it be strong enough to move the boat?

Cool! Starting as a (near) submarine to become a flyer!

Is it you, doing the gymnastics?

Yes, from MANY years ago!

Hi Jo - I would imagine the Sea Fury would be MORE than enough power for that boat. But, I have never run the twin as it needs a new bearing made for the upper part of the crankcase. The crankshaft is very loose in the case...

Nevertheless: this old motor seems to be too valuable to be run in hard races - it will make a beautiful shelf queen as well.

I have several of the single cylinder Sea Fury and Atwood .049 outboards and have run those in the past. They do quite nicely on a small runabout I built.

Hello Chini,

great to see you. Welcome here in the forum. In various other forums I have already read some Posts from you and we had already written. About your Hedlund plans which you have taken from the original had already a look.

Unfortunately, we build in accordance with our Regulations only Boats till to 1965.

But for a few weeks in this post stands that the Roundnose will be designed at the beginning of the 60th.

With this info it completely fits in our pattern. Many thanks for the Hedlund plans.

I put the Roundnose on my Todo-List for 2014

Can we expect you to our Second Cimpetition in Germany? Then we keep a place for your tent

tschakaa schrieb: Yeah! And it would be nice if you'd come around with your 30-H and one or two of the original boats!

As much as I would love to travel to Germany for the races, I don't see that happening within my budget.

My Hedlund is actually a Hedlund copy, built in the mid 1970s by a regional boat builder, but the design is indeed from the 1960s.

Not sure how this expression would convert to Euros, but here in the States I like to say that my Hedlund would turn on a dime (10¢) and give you 9¢ change...

The Hedlund hydro design seems to be very interesting as a 152VO model because of its big canopy. Ideally suited to hide all our RC stuff. Most of the three pointers are much too flat to get anything inside.
