SCALED down from the Chris-Craft 20-foot custom runabout, Bouncie II combines smart appearance with good performance. Exceptionally easy on the eyes, Bouncie II is a boat you'll be proud to display in your living room. The model requires no special tools to build, and any shallow pond of 40 or 60 feet diameter will suffice for tethered runs. Of course, you can run Bouncie "free" if you have the space—and a row or power boat for retrieving. The original project was made the easy way—by using a McCoy "49" fitted with an Arden Glow Plug. In this way the batteries, coil and condenser were eliminated. Of course, the interior is sufficiently spacious to permit installation of a regular ignition system and, if desired, engines up to .65 cubic inch displacement can easily be installed.
