    Yes. I put foam on the tips to protect it. I love this boat! even though it is not mine. Respect and care for others stuff.

        You bet with out him and others I would be lost. I just have to have the weather and funds to go to Fremont and run it again. I really need a camera man the day and sleep the day before I go to run.

            Randy, I'm going to be building a Conquest over the winter, and plan on using your build as a guide. Is there any advantage/disadvantage to using stinger drives instead of transom struts? Great build.
            Thanks,
            Rich

              I went with the strut mount for strength. With a 10S2P set up and twins there was a lot of power to deal with. Stinger use the bottom of the over hang for strength side to side. You do not have that in the Conquest. I do not know all the setups in the world so there could be some I have not seen that are strong enough. this is what I liked and it works great.

                Thanks for the input. I never thought about it that way, but it makes a lot of sense. I'll go with the struts.
                Thanks again,
                Rich
