It' will be a bit of a PITA to tape with the multi levels and curves. But I dont think it will be much harder than my sons old Mean Machine.

            Here are a few pics of the lid on Andym and Doug Smock's 'ducer. On the Trapshooter, it doesent look like there is a lip that runs down the length of the opening to support the lid. Dont know if it's the photo or Doug used black tape but as you can see on post #61 there is a lip mine. BTW- If you tell Jerry it's for an electric boat when you order, he may build you one in glass. Get the CF!!
            looks like Doug used some closed cell foam to help seal the boat.

              Hey Mike;
              The little DF 26 is ready to go.
              The Insane twin mono is getting there. The the equipment all marked out for mounting.
              Doing up the batteries and ESC/motors (connectors and such) here in a couple days, Then I start drilling the transom and mounting things inside.

              Still haven't started on the 37 twin cat yet. LOL

                  Better get moving Carl. The weather man says the Jet Stream's pattern is going to start changing in a few weeks bringing us milder temps toward the end of the month.

                    I like the idea of using smoked lexan....clear lexan or plexi condensates pretty quickly...Nice!

                      It should also keep the interior a little cooler and the extra weight will help me keep the CG back.

                      Three guesses where I got it and the first two don't count....
