you could drill holes and bolt them on but they wont be recessed. I doubt that the hardware will create much of a problem. the hardware is just stainless. its nothing special, you can buy nuts bolts and washers anywhere.

I have had to put that on temporary hold until I finish the FXT hulls. The bodywork is done, make a mold and its done.

Enough people have asked for this so I am putting it out there. They are the same part I already make with reliefs for the stainless hardware which is supplied. They are foamed filled with flotation foam. You will drill the holes and then apply silicone or whatever adhesive/sealant you want to...

sano, you can post my secret remedy if you want. just the pics though.

yes, infused. like anything it took a little work to get it right. in hindsight I would have done a few things differently but it works as is so I guess I should be happy. the real devil is the inserts that are hollow. This makes more things to deal with. the multipiece mold is more work to...

wow! I like the way pics are displayed now. big and nice fat arrows on the left and right. cool

aaaahhhh my eyes!!! lol. everyone if you dim your monitor it hurst less. I cant find anything but somehow I quoted and posted. so I guess Ill keep stumbling thru like always. maybe in a bit we can get a thread on how and where the functions/features are so old dudes like me can navigate with...

monday I have to get more gelcoat and run for some other parts. maybe tuesday. next will be another top, while I prep the next bottom.

im not sure why your part is coming off but I wonder if that screw actually went into the hull? did you cut off the excess? did it get too hot and melt the resin in the hull thus making it not really screwed in? I like to mix thickened epoxy with cabosil instead of 5200. this way when it...

ok so I been draggin azz a little lately. long days, weeks in row caught up with me. so bottom came out pretty decent. I was trying to not put 15lbs of gelcoat in the hull and its a little thin in some areas so the finish is not perfect. not a major problem. its just out of mold and...

real kneeslapper there. ha----ha. yawn.

bruceski-wow thats brutal! lol you really have to work hard to make that happen I bet.

nobody can answer that from behind their keyboard. when you go back together leave the rubber dampner out and get a small flat edge tool like a ruler or something. slide the motor in all the way to the back and check that you have even spacing vertically. then use your flat tool and check all...

ok so were at +5lbs now

had to force myself to leave at 1:30 last night. Finally got the inserts done. they are not pretty but it will work. waxed 2 coats and gelcoat will go on shortly.

I dont know why, maybe im just a stickler but I wanted the shorted hull to be the exact copy of the full length. so I had to make a plug of the rear, make a part off of that, glass the part to the plate insert, glass the rear section to it and make a flat section to fab to the top. The top...

After seeing how little room there is for inserts around a larger exhaust and scupper tube and seeing the difficulties in managing ways to mount the rideplate I can understand why the hull extension/rideplate combo is being put to use by most of the hull builders today. We didnt have that...

ok, I dont have all the stuff done to finish this little update but I will soon. I had not planned on modding the bottom initially. But Chasingdaylite was thinking about it and so we decided to dig in. The plan was since the hull was already made was to cut the rear section on either side...

respectfully Mr. Sparkplug, where do you feel I fall in the "vendor category? And IF you believe I am a "big vendor" how do you know how much money I make from using this website? Actually please take a guess at my yearly income and profit from my business. I would love to know how people...
