713 1958 California
Cracker Box
The cracker box style
boat was first introduced in the 1940’s after the war, and quickly became
a favorite style boat for the home builder. With its simple design
and good looking profile, the two-seater was reminiscent of the classic
racing runabouts.
The model can be built as a strictly competition boat with
out the mahogany planking, and fiber glassed over the balsa sub planking,
or as a racing runabout with the supplied mahogany planking.
The kit includes all laser cut parts with a detailed
instruction booklet filled with step-by-step photos, as well as separate
detailed CAD drawings of the various assemblies. The model is supplied
with all of the details to make an accurate 1/6th scale model
for display as well as full fledged racing model. The picture above shows
the model with a true 1/6th scale Chevy 283 cu. in.
