i saw one of those made by kenner at a boat race in new symrna beach. the life guards were patroling the beaches inshore. the waves would crash on the bow and just wash out the stern. they were like a giant jet ski.

The cut out sides make it much easier to bring a person on board.Great idea!

how does the transom hold up to the torque of the motor? seeing how its free floating.

kracker, it's kinda hard to see, but the transom is tied to the console with stringers above the deck.
