Anyone familiar with Mk4 Sea Truck, foam filled, box frame hull design!!?????

[jlessick]

I have an old SeaTruck landing craft that I've been restoring for awhile and I'm wondering if anyone out there has any experience with these boats? I have some water in the hull and I'm wondering if they were designed with limber holes in the hull or if each section of the box framed hull were totally sealed? I've already re fiber glassed the hull so I'm not to keen on poking holes all over the bottom to find water pockets! HELP!

Never heard of it or that type of hull.

Got pix?

I am not familiar with one of these, but sounds pretty cool! Do you have any pictures?

James Dyson was one of the designers. But he thought the design sucked, so he went on to other things.

He did assist designing it as project in school and it is made by Rotork in Bath, GB. You might try contacting Rotork.

So where are these pics?

If you use a photo hosting method like Photobucket, the easiest way is using the IMG code way.
