    Lipo slides got modified also, no big changes but shapes in the groves are a bit more tear drop like. This allows the sledges to be installed faster and guided into the rails. The JW logo and "Keep Walking" was engraved with a chrome foil as well.

      Ok, So here is the concept... we have since made small mods but this is where is started out. As always I try to do a drawing of what the end result will look like. Still not complete but should get there soon...Mr. Walkers signature was an important part of the concept, and will be featured in a few places of the boat.

        The plate was cut in 1.5mm carbon to keep her light, although there will be a further 2mm carbon to support the servo. All mounting points are M4 in stainless steel. Here is the first view of the plate. I would have liked to get it looking more like the actual platinum bottle, but it would of had to be 650mm long or so, therefor had to compromise between the Platinum and Black Lable.

                almost done! most parts are in, just have to fit some electronics and make the water outlets and other small bits. Also have to fit all the decals and so on. This build thread is now up to date as the boat stands.

                                Looks great Kent. Definitely my favorite of your builds so far.i love the black on black and the personal meaning it has to you really gives it character.
                                I'm not a fan of the mhz hydraulics either. If you need them in the future let me know, I may have a better solution.
