Alright so I decided to finally start a thread on my buildup...even though the ski's almost done LOL

Started off with my bone-stock 05 SXR. Already put a crank in it (then learned to get a bilge), and a top end and that was it.

Then came the little goodies, an R&D ign advancer, Blowsion bilge switch and rail caps with stitched mats, ODI locking grips, R&D exhaust sleeve, grate and plate.

Then Ben (24-7 760 superjet) decided to trade his sled for a 96 superjet that was all done up last summer, and things took off from there.

Heres a before, pretty much stock



this was after the stock rubber rail caps RIPPED off



Some new graphics thanks to Ben



Then we started getting into hull mods. Here we shaved the rear lip off



Then we flipped her and got out the sawzall...



Shazaam...4 inches gone!





The new rear profile...



"D"-cut in the hull...still needs to be finished



The hand-made carbon fiber ride plate (by 24-7 760 superjet), still not finished, awaiting more carbon to finish her off (shown here for test-fit)



Then he suggested we shorten the pole...



Instant 1.5" shortened pole...



And where we left off yesterday...Pole shortened, reinforced up top, and new doule-size breather tube installed



Much more to come, have to finish the pole and the hull, Get my scupper and install that, finish the graphics on the RH side, put the motor back in and RIDE!!!

Upcoming mods will include a wet pipe and prop, flame arrestors and pump cone. I was thinking about getting the TBM adjustable one...anyone have any ideas? Thanks!!

well at this point I've got no choice lol

I got the hang of the stock hull super fast, and needed a little something extra...not to mention the 10-15lbs I've already lost off this thing so far!

Dont worry,it will be done right..Ill make sure of it.Will dont get that drain on ebay.
I know for a fact the drain rubber will haveto be replaced,by time u do that it would have been the price of a new one.Just get the sane as mine.Paul suggested wammers
or x metal.

4"s Yikes! Hope it all works out.

I would suggest moving your entire setup forward now 4"s to compensate. (Footholds, handle pole)

At least you can always put hull extentions on, and be back to -2" or stock.
