Very nice Jason. Love the rustic Lazy Days theme, you could really chill sailing her.
Looks like the wheelhouse has been made of driftwood.

Which one is the better performer, the conventional rudder or the Kort?
I am asking because I am building my second Springer, also having been bitten by the Springer bug,
my first has a conventional prop-rudder assy. It is very maneuverable.
I just wondered if I would benefit by fitting korts to my Springercat.

I am running Lazy-days on a 900motor on 6volt 50MM kort prop & nozzle picture of in side Lazy-days
Bobby-bear as a 755motor from dave at action & i run that on 12volt's 40MM 4blade prop i think it would be better with a 50MM
