This is an excellent little raceboat for the cottage that can also be brought to the boat show! Science and Mechanics magazine offered plans for the "Minimax" back in the 1950's. Designed to be built for a MINIMUM cost and MAXIMUM performance. This boat was built at that time and is believed to have been used as a display boat in a Seabright, NJ marina (the price sticker is still on the bottom of the cast aluminum Kainer steering wheel). She has been totally restored and is a real beauty. The KE4 Mercury pushes this boat well and looks very sharp. This is a great running package that shows very well. This rig is ready to give a young enthusiast years of enjoyment!
