Nope.
It would be too much work to build the back pieces.
I would feel much more comfortable glassing in the original pieces.
Also, I will be mounting a scupper to one of them, so I need to have it perpendicular in order to properly seal.

The lip will be removed, but the top will be the same.

Looks good geek! so cutting the hull isnt really supposed to hurt other tricks? I was still debating that since I'm not that dedicated to only tricks.
hmm, i should get motivated and try to keep pace with you guys...

I rode Malones boat and really liked how it handled. You can easily bring the nose up but it would also carve like crazy. Sweet ski. I like the shorter hull as well.

So is the bottom deck of the RN and SN hulls 100% identical?
RN pump and everything fit a SN like original?

Yes, but Malones boat has a SXR style bottom on it which explains the great handling

Does anyone know exactly how long Malones hulls are???
Has anyone ever tried taking 2"s off the back of a SJ? I cant wait to here how it works.

13 pounds is rediculously light. If this holds up, i'll bow down to sergio forever.
Seems quite impossible, but if anyone can do it, i bet its him.

That shorter hull will make a huge difference!!:biggthumpup:
Cool build Matt, keep us posted:woot:
This boat should be alot lighter than an oem roundnose .That SMC sure is some dense heavy stuff:frown: Unfortunetly, most of the weight lies in bottom hull itself.
Do you have a front nose mold to rebuild the lip area?

No, the front nose of the square is cut off and then you use a mold to glass a new one for the roundie, the rest is the same. only component that is different is that the intermediate hsg on the 90-93 has a different bolt pattern.

Does anyone have any lengths/specifications on some of the aftermarket hull's that are out there...... I cant seem to find anything, this is the first I have realy though about it.
The square hull has six inserts for the rideplate - roundie (at least mine) have only four.
