    I wouldn't be surprised if you had trouble with cavitation from an air pocket forming just behind the water intake...

              What hardware did you use???!?

              That's the first time i've seen a conventional mono stinger on a hydro. Rudder looks nice!



              EDIT:

              Oh, hah!! I just scrolled up the page and saw your setup... :P

                    Cheers mate glad you like
                    I thought that when i brought it but tried it the other way round and the the stub shaft was to short to get prop on but plenty the way it is now,so what im planning is pressing out the centre bushing and turning it round,like iv done on my F1 hydrofighter build take a peak at build thread and youll see what i mean.
