Its 7" long (body) and 1.5" wide, floats level, has oversized plastic blade. Tomorrow we'll see how it ploops. The blade is made from storage container plastic and can be fine tuned ( bent) with a lighter. It is more durable and retains its shape better than metal blades.

Pretty cool. I would suspect the only thing you would have to worry about is at what speed would it roll.

Tried it today, with the oversized blade its really noisey and throws a lot of water. Its actually pulls somewhat hard, kind of like a double 8 bucktail. It ran true at all speeds but rolls if submerged during the 8.
