You know how on a superjet, you can just barely get the ebox up on the edge of the hull to open it? Well the 'bot is just a couple inches deeper so you just need a couple inches. Might even be enough to just use a battery cable for the starter. Just so you can lay it flat to take all those damn screws out or put them in.

Clean ski, I plan on getting one when I get back from deployment. Where you ride at because I saw you were in Green Cove, I'm up in Fleming Island. I've been trying to find local people to ride with.

I usually ride out of hugonaught. PM me your number and I'll call or text next time we go out! Got a group of 8-10 I ride with. If the surf is flat, sometimes we just ride Black Creek

I'm deployed right now, as soon as I get back though I'll for sure shoot you my number. Anyone else riding an AM hull? I'm gonna be in the market for one but wanted to ride some first.

Cool! Be safe on the rest of your deployment and thank you for your service!
Most of the guys I ride with have customized RN super jets but there is trinity, and sometimes a richter and another Aquabot

Thanks for that man
I'm mostly interested in trying an Aquabot only because I'm in the budget build category and they seem to have a very reasonable price for how well they're built and the service that backs them.
Labeling this hull in the 'budget build' category is a bit of a misnomer......it kind of implies it as an entry level or starter ski. We priced the hull low to get them out there and make them affordable to more people. The materials used along with fit and finish are up there with, if not exceeding a lot of the higher priced hulls in the market. Good luck on your deployment....make it back safe!! Hope you get to check out one of the hulls in person soon along with a side by side comparison of others so you can see how much of a value the Aquabot is.

I wasn't saying the materials were cheap or anything along those lines. I was just saying that for the quality and durability of it at that price is a deal. I'm pretty much set on the Aquabot just from everything I've read so far. I know it's intended for freeride but everyone has said it's a fun all around hull. Plus I haven't heard any stories from guy doing freeride of stress cracks. Which to be durable in surf will far surpass my riding style on flatwater.

I'm building mine when I get it as a all around ski, I ride surf 4-10 times a year but I ride the river very frequently cause it's only a hour away. I know I will be more than happy throwing the Aquabot around on the river with my friends, and more than pleased with it's performance in the surf

Another huge reason I love the hull, It can be built as a dual purpose ski and not hold you back in either aspect of riding. Everyone on here says that it's a strong surf ski that is still nimble enough for flatwater.

I definitely agree with it being a great all around ski. I'm in the same boat that I make the surf twice a month tops but ride the local lake or river once a week. I think the icing is having two ride plates so I put the short one on when just slashing in the surf or free styling on the lake and the long one when we are going to spend a little time cruising. Still messing with pole length and bar set up. Keep going back and forth about how short or long I like it.
I'm still amazed at how much a JM735 kicks it around!

Incidental story, a friend of a friend came over and rode on the lake with us. He hasn't ridden much and did way better on the aquabot than on the tricked out but stock length superjet.
The superjet even has extended rails

Coxxy, give me a holler after your homecoming and we can kick it around lake Asbury or maybe even hit Drs lake and you can figure out how you wanna set yours up.

Got one with the hull from Tony/tigercraft! I think it was 3mm. Not sure if I paid extra for it but if I did it wasn't much
