the pole is a -2 oh yeah and heres something you have been wating for
i started and almost finished my hood today, i still have to bolt the plexi glass to the aluminum tubes (notice all the swiss cheese style holes for weight haha), it has to be siliconed down so it doesnt leak, all hte plexi glass was cut using a knife we found in my friends garage and heated it till it was red hot, cut for like 4 inches, then reheated took some time but oh well. i cut the new air hole. and the extensions have to be put on both down tubes in each direction so the water has to be really high in the hood chamber to even get into the tube. i think it should keep out water very well hopefully. i will post pics when its totally completed oh yeah and the bottom aluminum supports need a plat welded onto them so they distribute the load over more of an area so they dont poke right through hood. nothing its glued down or anything yet but this is how its gonna look.
all my ski is now is a bare hull with electrics as you can see
