B-1 Dropdeck Project

[blaster800]

Here is my skunkworks dropdeck project for my B-1 , Im doing this now so I stay motivated by lookin at my own pics this winter ., Im making some surf mods to the hull , as you can see I did not want to build the standard flat-deck so I actually dropped the deck 4 inches by chunking out some of the hull It also allows me to keep the foot angles in the deck and also allows you to stand closer to the hull instead of the deck ''sounds good to me anyways , I think this will get the CG a little lower since It seems to me that the B-1 is high in this area . One other thing I plan to accomplish by doing this is , when side mounting It will allow you to be 2 inches closer to the side of the hull by removing the side lip, I also bang my knee on this appendage anyways so its got to go !! , Yea ,Yea, I will make up the strength another way, but nothing ventured nothing gained IMO !.. BTW /The front of the hull will be moded also ... feel free to give up your opinions as it may give me some more Ideas !! FWIW here are the pics

[Dustin Mustangs]

Wow, that is one big can of worms you just opened. On the bright side, it should make reinforcing the transom quite a bit easier!

I will be following this one...please keep us updated!

I had always wondered why nobody had done this...with all the people making fixed steering SJ's...seems like someone would just make a waveblaster look like a SJ(in regards to having a tray ) Really not much of a point to have a seat on a WB1 anyways...not like it gets used!

S L O W ! G O I N G !....... I did some more cutting / fitment to make the lines flow a little better .
