i will have pics on friday of my waffle cut in my build thread.

how can you tell what cranking psi is and running psi?

unfortunately no one will ever see it. but it made the tray nice and strong. the tray and sides still had a little more than desireable flex (IMO) but that last layer tied everything together and stiffened it up quite a bit. ithink its perfect.

unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control i have had to have my pump and motor out several times a season for the last 2 seasons and now i defoamed over the last couple months. i even checked all the threads they never looked bad. oh well.

well after i removed it i found out that with the original threads ripped out the hole was the same size as the tap drill for a 3/8-16 helicoil. it worked excellent. so if anyone is not doing a refoam and strips one out just helicoil it to 3/8-16.

you put that info and your x member name in the comment section. cuz i just ordered the waffle cut. thats how i found out about no more phone orders.

yesterday i used a hole saw and cut a hole in each gunny at the top and added more ping pong balls (never took pics, sorry). i also fixed the insert for mounting the pump. today i did my final layer of carbon fiber in the tray. tomorrow after it sets i will trim the edges and do any sanding and...

read darrens build thread. he had issues near the bulkhead. i put it back here cuz o few others have it back here with no issues.

unbelievable. very very sad. way to young. RIP

found out the hard way that they are no longer open on fridays and they also are no longer taking phone orders. they do honor the discount for being a forum member. just though i would let people know so they dont try to place an order over the phone on a friday after they get paid.

it worked great you just have to really scrub to get all the clay off. it doesn't actually boond to the resin its just sticky. i ended up scrubbing with water and a reg then a toothbrush and acetone.

where can i get one? or how has someone fixed one before. i have it out of the ski so i could all ways helicoil it. just wanted to see what other people have done.

so today i figured i would get some of the rest of the ski put together and as i tightened the last pump bolt the threads ripped out of the bress insert inside the hull. WTF. my solution was to use a hole saw and cut through the tray. now i need to find a new insert or maybe helicoil this one.

here are the enclosures. i scrubbed all the clay out that i used to form them. next to add some layers on the inside.

here are pics of the tray. it is 16.5 inches wide in the back and stock width in the front which i believe is 13 inches. i mixed up a batch of resin and filler to a cake frosting like consistency to smooth out low spots as it was very difficult yo get flat sides. i started my enclosures on the...

get the sponsons that #zero sells. great price the fit is superb and if you dont want to do a comlete fill on the edges like i did they would still look better than the blowsion tubbies.

the weather has finally broke a bit. i finished the bottom. hopefully over the weekend i can get some work done in the tray.

in order to get it to activate you need enough uv in order to get a nice sunburn

not enough. i have used other uv activated things and it does not work well when its cloudy.

it makes a great handle when pulling a moter..... it just links them together and looks cool. i used to use mine as a handle, grab that and the mani and out she comes.
