Bayswater Bulk was 29 ft 6 inches in lenght and 14 ft wide.
Air was trapped all the way to the transom. The tunnel had a constant angle from the pickle fork to 6 ft from the transom and was then flat. Left hand sponson has 45 degree chamfer on inside, there was a dropped section to take the gear box giving a very shallow shaft angle. Motor/driveline and driver were offset to the left approx 6/8 inches to make for better cornering ? Graeme Morley |
