My buddy is a thick & heavy guy. He chose not to use foam in his FX but instead added some extra bulkheads for support with no problems after a couple years. Check out after post # 12 in his build...
I think this will help to shorten turns too. I'm bringing up the bond line a little and think it will let the nose drop with less effort and be quicker on turn-in.
I messed around a little with rounding the back. The nose will ride higher so you'll be riding with most your weight on your...
hehehe... this is one of the few areas I have'nt cut yet.
I'm planning on following the line of the nose with the bond rail but plan on ending it at the front and not wrap around the front.
Will do!
hehehe.... Wish I had some time. This is the most I touched my boat since last Aug...
:scratchchin: I've been thinking about this mod and this talk has giving me some inspiration. Chopped my nose this week cutting the top back to where the recess for the bow eye ends and the bottom back to the water box mounts. Shaped up and hope to start laying glass tonight. :mischievous:
Took my 4yr old out for his first ride today. He was hooting away on every little turn. That was some of the best fun I've had on my boat. Good stuff:bananajump:
Nice!!! Thanks for posting those... I don't ride there much and when I saw you on the beach watching I stayed away because I was thinking you were taking our reg. #'s to call the cops:sadwavey: Fun stuff!!! See ya next time:bananapowerslide:
Nice to see you got Terric to come & play. I got a little footage befor my batteries died:banghead:
Any one riding tonight??? It's smaller but much cleaner today:bump:
I pulled the plug on that project... It's been sitting in the back yard. I still would like to try a boat shortened in the middle and have some other ideas. I wanna try out Goose's stunt hull and see if it's for me or I'll have him lay up a SJ hull kit to cut up.
Cooll!!!:headbang: I'll be there with some of the old farts Mafia:bigok:
Hey Alex... I was working in your neighborhood last week and was tempted to give you a call... Have'nt seen you since April:no: ya been riding much:spank:
hehehe... not deep enough in places. You stand next to your ski with it on its rail, hold it wide, then jump on and hope you don't bottom out befor getting on plane. I do alot of bottoming out & cussing.
