Bad electrical component....so, no water testing.
There were a couple of us there interested in seeing it get wet... just not today.
Phil C. is correcting electrical, tuning, and 'gearing' the pump for this application.
Great to see the TPE gang, thanks for the hospitality.

Got to see this thing in person, its pretty cool to see how the ergonomics are setup, along with the inside setup. Its nice and wide, with a very unique rail design that Craig has used on some of his other prototypes. Nothing I have seen on any other hulls in the freeride industry so I am definitely interested ti see how she rides!
I am just happy its 2 hours away now rather than 7!

soon...they're Polaroids and take a little longer to develop. j/k
Getting parts shipped to Phil, so he can do his magic.

Finally, I've got something to work with. Still breaking it in , but more than happy with the power these motors have.
Now, comes the part where the hull needs tuning. It is riding nose high, and doesn't plane quick enough. 3 variables that differed from earlier models, and directly effect it: rockered nose, chopped/rocked rear, and seat further back.
Also, once up on plane, it requires a bit more skill to maintain balance. Again, earlier upper hulls had even lower seating than the current. I like current setup that will require more skill, but will pay off in 'flick-ability'
You'll see the progress much quicker, now that I'm in control.

thx, now public...
All part of the prototyping progression. My hood Quicklock pin system- pulled it's threads, (so much for- 200lbs tensile strenth, 4X). I'm going back to my modified JM hood strap system.

The big ones are too big, so doubling up on these should have done the trick. But, one hard pull separated- the part- not my mounting! Guess they were not expecting this application.
Me too...but we needed this first. ps your tank would look much better in there...lol

No one cares about the engine! We want to see the Hull! =)

Bite yer tongue ^
She's not ready for her coming out party...
Getting to this point was tough, now I can also forget about engine, and focus on what is really important.

Getting familiar w/ power and hull. This is Supermoto water style. TPE964 Tuned by Frank (Blaster 800) super competent tuner, and a nice guy.
