OK, so with all the talk about Sniper speeds I figured its time to post a thread on shooting for the 100mph mono. I have been patiently waiting and researching all the threads and watching other monos run before I pulled the trigger on this project. First thanks to the guys who helped me placement of components and ideas: Anbjorn, Peter and Brian.
Here are the links to Peter's build: http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...ead.php?t=6901
and Anbjorn's build: http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...hlight=anbjorn
The hardware list:
DF Sniper 45 w/5" rails reinforced with carbon on bottom and transom.
Flooded stuffing tube design running 1/4" cable
Lehner 3080 High Amp, fan & LQ cooled. Peter Zicha mount.
Schulze 40.303wk
Hyperion 45C 10s2P set-up
HiTech HS-7980 steering servo
Speedmaster rudder and 1/4" strut
OSE trim tabs and brackets
Prior to recieving the hull I talked to Peter Zicha and we came up with a combined Lehner 3080 and Schulze 40.303WK mount. As is customary he did a great job:


I copied the servo mount idea from Anbjorn which nicely mounted the servo on the right side stringer very close to the transom. Peter was kind enough to machine this for me as well:


After recieving the hull from Steve, I masked the transom in painters tape and using carpet tape I stuck all the hardware on the transom for layout.


Once all the transom hardware was laid out how I wanted, the holes were transfer punched and hardware test mounted loosely.
