Surfriding Shortened SN build

[Guigs]

So here's my new build : It's a SN, shortened by 3" in the back, fully re-enforce and modified nose. I know everybody like pics...

Started with a ugly hull (had a good deal on it as is on the pics:

Then I removed all the wet foam in it (25lbs on old y wet and moist foam)

I also widened the tray by 2"

Scealed the joint with urethan scealer

new foam

3" removed with a angle at the back

ATP foothold and front foothold molding

Vacuumed the fibreglass and carbon-kevlar front foothold

Here is the inside. Side are re-enforced with 2 ply of 10oz fiber and 1 ply of carbon fiber and carbon-kevlar in the bottom to patch cracks and reenforce

Here is the nose modification

I will modified the nose again to move the pole bracket forward a few inches. This way I will not have to cut my AC pole and will get better handling.

I'm open to your comments and suggestions, don't be shy.

Looks great to me, I like the BOB nose your making if you plan on not redoing the nose rail. Keep it up and more pics!

Nice project!

I'm not redoing the rails on the nose, I will keep it almost like it is now. Just need to rework it a little bit to make sure it's symetric.

This is looking pretty cool.

Some news! The brainstorming for moving the handle pole bracket is done. Here is roughly what it looks like. I finally moved the bracket 4.5" forward, but I'm gonna mode the turn plat 1.5 " to the back. So It will ride like a 3" shortened pole but with even better handling.

here is some pics.

There is nothing like a sawsall to modify a jet ski!! haha!

Cool project, like the mods.

like the nose man! keep it up

 

[Guigs]

The nose now completly different from the pics. It's WAY better, I'm glassing the nose this week. Hopefully it will be painted and re-assemble in 2-3 weeks just in time for the new season. I'll take some more pics next time I work on it.

I have not updated my project on this site for a while. It will be completely done and ready to ride tomorrow. I'll post pics and vids of final result, but for now here is a few pics.

When you chopped 3" off the back, is that off the bottom of the ski?

 

[Guigs]
