If you are going to make a masterpiece like your 730 meter Willard, please keep us inform. It was a real pleasure to look day after day to see the progression of this project. The result is amazing.

Yeah, there's probably a reason for that scarcity :-)

With the C. Raymond Hunt designed hull, mine rides like a 40 footer...

If you do find a hull, Wing has the pattern and they made my last tube.
