Below is a pictorial stage by stage example of a Waverunner 24 being built by Mike Moore of Sydney, Australia.

These are photos of a completely detailed scale model (approximately 1 meter long) that Mike is building prior to the construction of the complete boat. After seeking advice from our office Mike has extended the hull by three feet (to twenty seven feet overall) to give him that bit of extra room on the aft deck.
