    The one close to the motor is a oiler the other two is cooling for the stuffing tube to save the epoxy.

      Little more work done yeaterday.I missed one of the metal Plates in the transom and it took a little longer to drill all the holes for the rudder bracket.

      Servo mounted it was a stanard setup good thing it had a good base of FG that I oput it to rebuild the transom and floor of the hull.

      I am going to break from this I have to build three riggers lay up one Lift master today. I need some 7071 .125 plate for the turn fin.

                            Ran the boat yesterday. It looked like it was going to run great but the repair on the Schultz did not hold up and it poped. I will try the CC HV Next or the M-2000 one of them must do it. I am just afraid of the first run CC HV.

                              I thought this motor wasn't supposed to be much of an amp hog?
