I don't have any answers to your questions, but I own Rebel 307 and I
thought it was interesting that you owned 308. I live in Hendersonville,
NC.

was born in Canada.I bought myself a non finished Murphy 1500 float kit.
there are a few things missing.One being a CAD drawing of the floats,two
there was no bumpers and three no rigging. I do have the spreader bars. Does
anyone have a file you could send me of the Cad drawing? I sent an e-mail to
MAM about the bumpers NO ANSWER.
Also is there any particular reason people install the float cups on the
side of the floats instead of the top?

Thanks in advance for your help

[rebel-builders] 1500 floats

Hjalmar... The only CAD drawing of the (1800 amphibs) floats is a one shot
drawing... nothing else and it doesn't do much for you anyways in the way of
helping with the build.

Glad the picture of the struts for the 1500's I sent you worked to clear
that portion up for you. Nose bumpers get installed at the very end so I
wouldn't dwell on it right now.. hopefully Murphy will get back to you to
advise if they have stock on a pair of them.

Pump out cups get installed on the sides as you don't really want to weaking
the top deck.. and you get less rain water leaching in with them on the
sides... choice is yours where you put them though.

I do have a CD available for the float build with almost 1200 pictures in
the exact order they get built. It's done for 1800 amphibs.. but I'm sure it
would help you along with the build for straights as well.

Cheers,
Wayne
