I had one of these Water Skippers that dad brought home from the New York Boat Show. It would plane well with a five horse but would run like a scalded dog with a seven and a half. I can give you the plans if you want to build one. The Marten would be a lot of fun on it. – As for a tilt lock – these were available in the 1950s. Not hard to make if you’re a blacksmith. . .
