Hi Max,
How was Europe not too cold I hope?
I have been getting on well with the lightweight hull project, I was giving some thought to making a jig to slot into the lower hull mould to widen the intake area to allow fitment of a 155mm pump, Maybe after the first boat is finished you could bring down one of your big pumps to take measurements as I think a big pump would be a good option!
I spent some time straightening out the pole pad and have made a mould with witness marks for the 3 socket head hexagon screws witch makes it allot esier to drill the holes in the right place.
If you are ever in Pattaya call round to see the progress
Best regards Nick
