      Well, I've run into some seriously uncanny bad luck! The original shop where I laser cut and vacuum form parts went bankrupt just days before I was going to make the next run. Then.....hard to believe this.....but the new shop that I just became a member of SOLD their vacuum former yesterday! I was going to run parts tomorrow! I just can't catch a break. Anyhow, those that are in the que, please be patient. I'll eventually get things moving here, but it's been a challenge to say the least!! Ugh!!!!!

        Man, that is a run of bad luck. Hopefully you've used up all of this years already, & it's plain sailing from now on.
        See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

          I do not know if this will help But you can send the molds to me and I can do the vacuum forming. I do small runs about every two or three weeks.

            Holy crap!!! Thanks for the offer, Randy!!! I might just take you up on that if I can't get into another shop. Obviously, you could have the profits if it comes to this. Thanks!!

              Your next version (HOW MANY ARE THERE) should have the same DECK contour as the UL1. The Aquacraft UL-1 hatch and nose cones are still available thru Tower.

                That's not a bad option. It's where we started! It would require two separate pcs on the back half. The front would be the UL-1 (modified) and the back would be just another pc of styrene cut to size. It might limit width for the batteries though. I'll have to check it out. I'm hoping to laser cut more wood next week.

                    You might have some customers! A lot of folks have been asking about a single pc canopy. I bet at least 20 people.

                      I reused the canopy off of my decommissioned N2 Sport Hydro.

                          So far it runs pretty good, still working on a little more setup to get it better.

                                That goes for everyone. I'm not much of an advertiser (actually, I've never advertised.....and somehow there are over 40 hulls out there in service!). If you are interested, shoot me a PM. I can email the instructions so you know what you are getting into prior to purchase. As I mentioned in the thread above, I'm a bit behind on cowls due to lack of vacuum forming ability, but I can get the wood cut soon.

                                Thanks,
                                Pete
