Using the H.P. Victor as a base for a Ekranoplan build

[McColm]

The Martin SeaMaster's hull is a good fit and I've sawn off it's engines and mounted them to the rear of my Airfix 1/144 SRN-4 Hovercraft project 'Colossus' they sit above the turbines. Not sure if there was ever a jet powerd hovercraft, there is one now!!

Yeah I know, but I mean just in shape terms. By all means replace the radome with a good, solid hull!

Hmm...I see what you mean.  How about raising the wings, or the intakes to keep the engines out of the spray, and maybe a retractable hydroski,   
a' la SeaDart?

The original SRN1 hovercraft had a Turbomeca Somethingorother added to its aft deck in its later years. so you have some precendant for that.
