:thumbsup: I like the design so far! :thinking: Can you slip the motor into a hole in the tail?

Your "ocean explorer" puddleduck racer design is still my favorite. Love the youtube video. Must see for anyone interested in micro sailing.

I think the extension is really well done and makes it even more practical.

I wish I saw these before I started my build I may have done it this way. That is fantastic! :thumbsup:
