Hpr 06 / 115 build

Yeah I just got an email from lehner saying the status of my order has changed to shipped..... Once I get these motors that is the last of the parts needed to really get the build going. Thanks

[Chrisg81983]

Jkr I was amazed in how true this thing is that was the first thing I did with it

[jkr]

That is the main reason why they hit 90's out of the box!

[Chrisg81983]

Can't argue with that statement. The craftsmanship of my Hpr hull is the nicest and truest I ever saw / had I couldn't be happier. I would recomend one to anybody who is thinking of getting / starting a high end build. I think it is worth every penny and so glad I finally made it happen.

[jkr]

Yes.And you can go fast with a low end setup like:

Hey Chris, any updates? waiting....waiting

[Chrisg81983]

Hey Kent what's up well I got the maiden in I must say it looked great for a boat with no motors. I just did a water test to make sure the drives didn't leak. I should have the lmt's any day now along wi the airscoop and a backup set of flexes from manuel. Kent I wanted to ask you someing being the vinyl is clear will it look ok over the white gelcoat. I know I originally said it was going on the metallic silver I just thought that since I had two sets I was going to put one on now before paint just to make it look decent. Once the boat is complete then redo the vinyl with the second set. I was just thinking of this because the paint might not be for a while as my painter is in the middle of moving, and I was supposed to have it ready last week for him and failed to do that.......I also haven't had much of my own boat building time due to a few boat building jobs for other people. I just finished up a geico, and almost done with a pb mystic 29 witch I must say is a cool little boat.

Hey Chris, you want the good news? Ok, if printed on clear the colours will just look more natural, or as intended. You should still get a good result. To apply them you simply use a mister bottle filled with water and a couple of drops of dish washing detergent. If you spray both the boat and the sticker, you can slide the sticker into position. When happy just use a squeegee to get the water and bubbles out. Maybe use the middle part of the main sticker as a test before you get into it. You don't need that bit for anything anyway. Good luck and hope you get the parts soon....still waiting in this end as well.... By the way, the vinyl is pores, meaning the water will dry out and the sticker becomes permanent. You can still take it off

Ok sounds good thanks for the help let me know when u get those things I wanted from you

[nata2run]

[Chrisg81983]

I know the feeling buddy it sucks for someone as impatient as myself . I have a hard time waiting a day and a half for my orders from Steve / ose

[Chrisg81983]

Ok ladies and gents I got a little more done tonight . I installed the rudder hydraulics and just went over placement of electronics along with Lipo trays. Here are some pics

[srislash]

Allright! there is one more thing done.Looks good Chris.I like the hydraulic arms.

[Chrisg81983]

Thanks Shawn I think they are a nice lil addition I am glad I bought them

Question does anybody have any advise on what the best way to seal where the cable for the hydraulics enter the hull ?
Thanks
