I guess making an outrigger with bottles would also make a brilliant light boat. also it would make it very light and minimal drag. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_2296131/anchors_2296131/mpage_1/key_/anchor/tm.htm#2296131 Just a photo....some food for thought.

you do a catamaran... 2 bottles 3 ins apart and then enough weight in each bottle to stop it tipping with the wind. and then just a small keel instead of 'the big one with a weight on'. regards don Title: Re: bottle boat. Post by: roopeshkrishna on September 13, 2011, 09:00:14 PM on the way Sir..
