Hi Mark - you'll find an expert in this stuff at http://www.vk4tub.org/,
specifically converting Dolphin/Ray to CCR via the KISS principle developed
by Gordon Smith among others. He also has has an aluminium shell cast for
his Dolphin - looks pretty damn fine. There's quite a few modded Dolphins
about - ping me if you need to know the lists that they hang out on!

Cheers

How many hours has that unit got? I saw it and thought it was new, but
upon sloser inspection decidied it was used, but only lightly. Good luck
with the CCR mod to it if that's the way you go :)

For me? Nah, I'm happy to solo on OC (kids: do not try this at home), but
I'm not sure I'd solo on CCR. Specially one that had been built in my shed!!

Or move to Sydney where there's a reasonable choice of buddies.
