Great! Be aware, the hull is small! It's beautifully made but man, everything is gonna be a TIGHT fit! The transom area is VERY small so I couldn't find an off the shelf stinger that would fit. I'm making a non adjustable one, its not ideal but I think it will work out in the end and be a very elegant solution.

Getting little things done....got the boat ready for the carbon inlay...

Slowly sprucing up all the electronics and figuring out the layout. Polishing and getting the rudder ready

Got the props from the prop shop...I'm not sure if they will actually work, but I will use them as show props if they don't work out. 3514 4 blade stainless CR

The 5/16 stainless tubes that will be the drives are shown, mounting them in the hull tonight, they hold 1/4 stuffing tube with some bushings.

Also shown are the custom couplers 4mm to 3/16 flex from Jeff wholt.

Got the struts in, set up a huge jig on my glass table to make sure they were EXACTLY where I wanted them, and of course parallel with the hull.

After some jb weld and sanding, I laid down a carbon inlay. Everything turned out very good in my opinion. Maybe I Put the west systems on a little thick.

Getting anxious to get this one done, but this is not a rushed build. It was a PERFECT day on the lake today.

That inlay must have been a real pain it came out great.
