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.

I was thinking fish but i guess it will work for people.

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