Looks good, although they are CG images not real I think.

Re: CGIs

That's right.... Base design before building.... Prototype out autumn next year..

Also just received CG images of engine mounted on boat (also new design), but not available in the public domain yet...

Oldest game in the world

Mate of mine used to race a modified MG Midget and had a competition tuned RX7 engine in it for a couple of seasons. Went like the clappers but sounded 'orrible. Anyway, from what I can recall the people he used to discuss tuning with had them in boats.

Google for 'wankel rotary boat' and there's some interesting stuff there, including a NSU/Volvo Outboard - aaaaaarrrrgggghhhhhhh.
