AC,

I've been trying to track Hi-Tech down. Its possible they are not in business any more. Will let you know if I find anything.

Lee,u mentioned "jackin the engine up and down"
Who makes mini jack plates for clamp ons and where do I get one?

In my days as a road warrior(marine parts salesman), I used to pass the Hi-Tech shop quite frequently...I think they were in Patchogue...maybe this will help your search. I think they also built a 18 footer as well that was pretty narrow...

Here is a Mini-Hawk I made for my son about 12-13 years ago. They were 13' long and about 43-43" wide, deep-V. Ran high 30-s with a 25 HP merc. Spent more time out of the water than in, but landed very smoothly.

I know what you mean.......but that is the whole fun of it!

exhausted, you made that??? clarify please. I have the same boat and could use another

Sharkey, If that aint the most posted pic on this board I dont know what is. Not doggin ya but its everywhere

Exhausted only has ten posts, so i didn't think he had seen it... How about this one?

I bought the bare hull and rigged it. The hull tag said it was made by Hi-Tech Marine in New York, but I couldn't reach them even back then. Wish I'd have kept it now, grandson could use here shortly.

Sharkey...you kill me

Try www.bobsmachine.com Mini Jack plate $99.00 holds up to a 40 HP engine. I think it has around 5 inches of vertical lift, and a 4" setback. Weight is 12 pounds.
