Section 1: Building the Boat Stand

Parts Required
Plywood boat stand pieces (4)
Tools and Adhesives Needed
CA or epoxy
q 1. Attach the side boat stand pieces by
interlocking them into the end pieces as shown.

Section 2: Attaching the Turn Fin

Parts Required
Turn Fin
3mm hex screws (2)
Tools and Adhesives Needed
3mm hex driver
Blue threadlock
q 1. Locate the included turn fin. This will be
attached to the right sponson. Any attempt to
turn the boat left may cause the boat to flip,
especially if this is done in a tight diameter and
at high speeds.
q 2. Place the Formula Hydro on the completed
boat stand once the glue has fully cured.
q 3. Locate the turn fin and the included 3mm
hex screws (2) to secure the turn fin.
q 2. Secure the interlocking boat stand with
medium thick CA or epoxy. Make certain you
allow the CA or epoxy to fully cure before
placing the boat on the stand.
q 4. Carefully place a few drops of blue threadlock
on the threads of both hex screws. This will help
to keep the screws secured to the blind nuts
within the sponson.
q 5. Carefully attach the turn fin onto the right
sponson as shown and tighten the hex screws
with a 3mm hex driver.
