Are you looking trying find some cheap and easy to hydroplane boat plans ? This article gives you an example of hydroplane plan, which can be made just in a few days.

The inventor of these hydroplanes termed them as minimax', as they require time to construct and give maximum performance.These are fast outboard powered planes generally used for water sports on protected waters. Seasoned boat builders make changes according to their requirements and make their version of minimax'.

This is one of the simplest stitch and glue hydroplane boat plans . Because of simple design a minimax can be made in a day. It is around 8 ft long and 70 lbs in weight. One man can easily hold it on a car top It has a watertight air compartment that support 900 lbs. even with the cockpit completely filled with water. Fiberglass tape on all seams makes the hull completely watertight. Depending on the motor you use you can achieve a speed up to around 40 mph.

To construct it, you require two 8 ft long, 4 ft wide and in thick plywood pieces. Frame is held to an absolute minimum with plywood sinkstressed to offer greatest strength to weight ratio. The hull is developed on the plywood as the work progresses. So, it does not require any building form. The motor board consists of two pieces 18 in. stock, edge glued and sandwiched between two layers of in. plywood.

I will strongly recommend you keep it under consideration, if you are looking for simple hydroplane plans .
