    Stuffed the P-Sport during WWIX practice. Was floating upside down. Tyler was doing some laps with his rigger so I waited for him to come in. When I got to where it was, it wasn't there anymore. Had a brand new set of Dinogys inside. Had to call the Shaugnessy for consolation.

    Nice build EOD. No need to swap out the brass bolt with nylon. Brass works fine.

        It is tough to install enough flotation in an FE-30 to keep it afloat if the hatch comes loose. My P-LSH weighs 5.2 lbs so it would take 150 cubic inches of flotation. A P-Sport would need even more....

          Concerning the brass bolt --- I'm hearing two trains of thought! Replace with nylon don't replace .... I think I'll ere on the side of caution! For the price of a few nylon bolts I don't want to lose my investment to a turtle shell!!!!!!
