pic of my 30' cat build. jesse j gave me these plans

[dana]

how do i post pics?

[Jesse J]

you gotta go advanced, then manage attachments. And these are Shockerman plans; he just gave me permission to distribute.

[screwball]

also you can use photobucket

Jesse, my system crashed and lost what you sent me. Would you e-mail me them again? I had a 36" but may consider smaller if you already have them scaled.

Then I want to find a lazer cutter person to cut some for me....I think you said one source already had the plans...can I get his contact...Alex something is what I remember.

[dana]

here they are

i hope this works, i put silica packets in there to help absorb moisture

[dana]

ill upload some better pics later...plus i have questions about the back of the boat and how thats done

[dana]

and another one

[Rumdog]

What will the power be? Looks nice!

[Jesse J]

Great work Dana, you weren't joking around!

What are your questions?

[dana]

rumdog, either the proboat or the ul-1 motor speed control setups. they both are great. jesse i noticed on someone else's they had the center of the rear of the boat cut out and the outdrive mounted in more....lemme show you mine... as you can see from the pic mine is flush. should i cut it in or is this acceptable too? thanks

[HYDROJERRY]

Looks nice dana, im gonna have to get me some of those planes im doing a 32'' Skunk cat but i have been thinking of making something big you can see well from the shore,, ill be watching your build.

[Jesse J]

the reason to cut in is so you can mount to the sturdy transom AND you will need the recess to be able to access the strut. You want the prop to stick out just past the overhang transom otherwise too much drag from prop spray.

I will be posting all my scaled plans on my website hopefully tomorrow. It can be found in my public profile.

[HYDROJERRY]

Ok jesse ill have to check for them later....

[dana]

ok jesse,but couldnt i just make and access hole to get to the strut? im just thinking about the extra room leaving the transom flush will give me but if performance will be comprimised i see the point. but before i get out the dremel i just want to be sure of what im doing. regards, dana

[Jesse J]

go for it man, you have the power to make it better. If worst comes to worst you can always trim more - or for that matter, glue more back on! I'd like to see it done w/o removing that back part of the deck, looks really cool flush across instead of recessed. I will be making one 36" soon and would like to keep it flush as you do. Am watching.

As for the plans, I have created a site - click here to view. If you guys would like to provide me with links to other free plans and/or quality laser cutting service I can add it to my site to have it all together. I have about 1 meg left so I will try to add some pics in the next few days. Please use my visitor messages to post links you would like me to add to my page.

Cheers,
