    one other thing is that you may want to think about as far as handling goes...ideally i have found in most cases the hull handles better when the inside edge of the rudder and the prop line up and are approximately the same distance from the transom...you would need a rudder bracket extension to bolt to...but again its all about the handling...i have never owned one of these hulls so it might be totally fine the way it is...another 2 cents..i wanna see the slut on the water!!!lol

      The boat was loose from the start, who knows what all of the changes you have done will do. I make one change at a time so I know what it did. you moved the cg forward when you moved the motor mount. you gave it mote lift when you lengthened the strut. The glue may have changed the bottom of the hull so there is no dip in it. (it may have lost that long ago) At least put the trims and the turn fins back ware you found them if possible. I am just trying to help. Rip was right about the rudder placement, it also helps counteract torque.

          got the hardware all taken care off, used some blackjack turn fins and homemade trim tabs, I might have to go to lake michigan to try this april is a long time away.


          I also did not messing around with window patterns, what about this one?

                    Had a little bit of paint sitting around, makes a huge difference

                      The boat is done, I am really happy about how it turned out, besides electronics, I got about $50 including hull, pain, and parts. The motor mount and trim tabs are home made. I just not sure how this brushless system will move it, only time will tell, not looking for tons of speed, just what I had laying around. Just need water
