Mk III is our heavy and high horspower Hull body. This Tunnel and underbody form has proven Stable, Maneuverable, and Quick to respond in forward and reverse. Twin Barn-door V-tail Rudders in a super clean flow tunnel with a shaft separation of 8'4". Twin vented full skegs protect the running gear and provide good directional stability. Full headroom engine-room with workbench, available with or without two water-tight bulkheads. This will walk a double-hull barge sideways. A big boat that doesn't get shoved around by the tow. Single or multiple story House.
