About a year ago i bought a used canard from Jeroen (speakerboy) viavia it's origin is in the US. I think it was originally an Aeromarine canard, but they lowered the deck. There was also no cowl with it. I rebuilt the entire boat and built my own cowl, used the styl of my whiplash cowl.
For power I'm using a modified 260 with 4 bearing case and a JDH pipe (about same as an JeroenTune). Cg is with empty tank, at about 32%
Last weekend ran it and ran very nice already good speed with a fresh engine. Tried numerous props (G20/3, 7016/2, 6520/2, 6518/3, 6717/3) but best prop sofar is a 2716/3.
What props/setup do you use?
Pat, remember this canard?
Here some pictures of rebuilding and testing last sunday.
This is about a year ago:
