47" twin mono to one outdrive build

[Jacked1]

I fired the motors and escs up tonight! They didn't have any sync loss at 8s so i was pleased. The escs did get out of sync when i hooked them to a 1100kv typhoon.

I will have it running this weekend out in the chop at indian lake if the Y-harness for the escs and battery comes before friday that i ordered!
(and if my dad remembers to bring me some 1/8th inch aluminum home from the pontoon factory )

The first and last two are electric! and a sailboat for 2nd and and a twin engine duck boat for the 3rd pic!

And those two will be going to this prop..

and I will start off with gearing to make the prop run at 1700rpm unloaded and go different gear ratios untill i get to 100-95 amps per motor.
1/4inch prop shaft and flex shaft.
I am making the gearbox and most of the hardware.

The hull was homemade from someone on ebay about 6-7 years ago that i purchased when i was 14.

I am really hoping to get at least 60mph and 75mph if these motors turn out to be sweet. Thanks for your interest!

p.s. After i am done with this and my mean machine i am going to make a 2-3 motor outrigger and try for 9kw!
