Finished prototype.
Swims a lot better with the trailing single rather than a big treble. Still got a few changes to make to the buoyancy and topside shape in the next version.......
Short vid of the swimming action as well.

Version 2 of "Porosus" ready for the swim test.
Made a few changes to body width and the angle of the jointed sections. Also went with screw in eyes in place of twisted eyes.
300 mm, WRC.

Unfortunately, Blinky passed away last year from cancer, too young at 60 Tony.

That is sad news, and way too soon. Least his work posthumously lives on and can be viewed on here.  Those crocs are bananas, always had a penchant for unique lures, great job.
