    550 top 650 bottom build, chop tail?

    My build right now is a JS550 top on a 650sx bottom, bondlineless, glassed on FX1 tubbies, X2 trim, 750 small pin light mods..... Id like to possibly flip it in some big surf but it needs to still be able to ride and not porpoise like crazy. I like to cruise around but still be flatwater fun...

    Hood Rat to Hot Rod... Js300/440/550 Thing.

    Hooray!!!! Finished all the glasswork on the inside of the hull. Them Tubbies make this thing pretty wide in the front...... Weighed the hull today. As it sits with the hood on it was only 76lbs. Should be quite a light ski.

    Hood Rat to Hot Rod... Js300/440/550 Thing.

    Thinking that I'm going to cut the inside of the hull out where the Tubbies are mounted. This will give me a little more room for a pipe. Around a year ago I made a stainless chamber for my buddies 850 wave blaster and im going to make a custom pipe to fit in this hull with the 750. Should be...

    Hood Rat to Hot Rod... Js300/440/550 Thing.

    So I've cut the bondline down 1.5" at the nose tapered to 0 at the bulkhead. Looks more low profile not so tall and goofy...but this now will probably make the ski want to dive/sub while hard in a turn or plow through not jump the wave. So its getting Tubbies glassed on to make basically a...

    Hood Rat to Hot Rod... Js300/440/550 Thing.

    All lined up... Time to stitch her together. This 650sx bottom has the same width stern to bow as the 550. However the bondline is not. About 1/2" wider on each side..... but not no more:cool:

    Hood Rat to Hot Rod... Js300/440/550 Thing.

    So I guess what we now have here is a "JS550/650 bondlineless deck swaped hull running a lightly modded 750"...... wow ...... Good news is my resin just arrived and the machinist called and my cylinder has been fresh cut to 1.5mm Woot Woot. ~770cc :D

    Moving 750 starter + lug location.

    I hope so. Kinda banking on it to make this 650 pjs pipe fit in my 550/650 conversion hull.

    Moving 750 starter + lug location.

    Does anyone know if you can twist the center section of the kawi 750 starter clockwise more toward the mani? Not much room in the js hulls. It's way to close to the pipe for my liking.Should be able to disassemble and rotate slightly I'd think. Pic explains... Thanks, Thomas.
