Hello All,
My Roundnose superjet is FINALLY back together after a year and a half hiatus
To make a long story short, I decided to turf the side rails, and retain my Rear PLASTIC Corners / Bond Line Protectors also known as “Rear Corner Gunwales”. The only problem is that the Rear Corner Gunwales are creating a massive amount of drag as well as a Rooster Tail that shoots up into my face as I ride. I am guessing this problem stems from the fact that there is a SMALL amount of turf under either side (Side Rail / Rear Mat) of the Rear Corner Gunwales which is not allowing proper fit of the Rear Corner Gunwales
Now I KNOW many people run this identical set up (Turfed Rails / Rear Corner Gunwales), so I am SURE I am not the only person to have experienced this. I would like to KEEP my Rear Corner Gunwales, so I am guessing I need to trim the lower lip to eliminate this potential safety hazard.
Can anyone lend some insight as to how I can best deal with this problem?
Any and All help would be greatly appreciated,
Regards,
