When three men met in early 1949 at a Seattle sailboat shop, none of them could have foreseen the peculiar and far-reaching consequences of their joint venture to build a better race boat. Slo-mo-shun IV was indeed better than any previous race boat. But she was more than that: Slo-mo IV touched the hearts of thousands who cheered her on and changed forever the way generations of Seattleites felt about raceboats. Slo-mo-Shun IV transformed the lives of those most closely associated with her, nearly destroying some of them.She evoked thrills and anger and, ultimately, she prompted tears and inspired poetry.
The Billing Boats kit of the Slo-Mo-Shun features: plank on frame construction, laser cut plywood keel, frame components and decks, hull fittings in wood, brass and/or plastic, rigging cord in various sizes, Propshaft, rudder and propeller. Includes Full size plan sheets and an instruction manual with English Text.
