Latest update for (nearly) the end of the season. Had a couple more hiccups related to the fuel system, but nothing we can't solve. Overall, I'm...
You make some good points as far as looking further at the interaction between the cav plate and the water on the prop. I've always thought of it...
Right now we can only trim a little bit (a few degrees, +3mph or so at around 30mps) before cavitating. Wouldn't raising the motor make that even...
Ahhh I see. Yeah I'm a Packer fan, but the preseason I can leave, too much skiing to be done yet! Well, trip number two had some noted...
Why do you say yellow (or gold for that matter)? The colors are tan and dark green, to match the upholstery. Was there a green and yellow color...
Well, we officially had the first shakedown run this last Saturday. Overall I'm going to say it was a success. 1) It floated! That's a big...
Thanks guys. @kevinb it's a Mariner rather than a Force. Force motors were highly contested depending on the age range, but the majority opinion...
Well folks, it's so close I can smell the exhaust! Jim and Kevinb thanks for the tips. The prop matter will just be food for thought till we...
Thanks guys. I wish I could take more of the credit but it’s all been my dad. I help out here and there when I can but it’s been 99% his work....
Well folks, here we are again, about a year after my last post. Dad ran into a very understandable hangup in making progress on the Dyne last...
I would have to agree. That Dyne looks beautiful the way it is, and I'd be inclined to leave it be. We've been wrapping our Hydrodyne and Dyna-Ski...
Best of luck in the future. Hope your schedule allows you back to the project.
TJ- Is this project still alive? Curious how it ended up, if you have a finished product and if you do, how you like it. Aaron
[ATTACH] There was concern that too much buildup was created on top of the transom and that the height would now be too tall for the motor. I...
[ATTACH] One of the best parts of the find. The original batwing trailer. Cleaned up, painted, new brackets for bunks. Would soon get new lights....
I apparently missed any photo opportunities after dad reinstalled the rear portion of the deck. I will fill in the gaps quickly... Glass fillets...
Well folks, neither my dad nor I have fallen off the world, contrary to the lack of posts. The '77 Tourney Skier project is still in full swing....
Originally these had the aluminum tank in the bow. One of the priorities with these boats is keeping the weight toward the bow to keep the nose...
Brooks- On our show team we currently run a 1983 20 footer with a 200 Etec H.O., and a stainless 4 blade 17 pitch prop. A Hydrodyne like this is...
tj- I wanted to see how your build was going. I think I speak for many Hydrodyners saying we are looking forward to the results! I am curious as...
