A streamlined 10 ft hydroplane adapted to all classes of outboard motor, from a 4 hp rowboat motor to racing engines. Extended motor wells give quick planing, and a vee-and-convex bottom with plywood stabilizers makes safe, sharp turns at speed. Three frames and a plywood skin keep construction simple.
