Ah, you ended up going way forward as well. I was forced to as well. As you know. It looks good Ryan

And on that note, I have a roll of 3m 1/16” here from mine. I know you didn’t have the gap but if you were to lay it on the lip in tight the hatch should catch it. Just an idea.

So weird the differences in the gap between our two hulls. Yes, I'll be using the thin 1/16" neoprene tape along the horizontal lip. I need to do a little block sanding on the underside of the canopy so the front sits a little more flush. I'll probably then go around the entire perimeter of the canopy again to account for the thickness of the neoprene to keep it sexy!

Geez you are gonna be in the water soon Ryan. Is it water there yet? I was by my club spot and it was frozen a week or so ago. My local lake is clear now tho. I just don’t run the HPR there.

The water here is soft again, but its still too cold to compete with all of the other stuff I have going on the weekends. Soon though.

Had a few minutes in the shop tonight. The 6S packs are a tight fit to get in and out, but they fit, and are easy to adjust once in place. I installed the hatch seal and test fit the canopy to determine how much sanding I'll need to do. Measured the flex cables and cut them to length. Minor steps, but its all got to get done.

Still waiting on my water jackets to get back from the machine shop. Man, I need my own lathe. Over the weekend I cut the motor wires, installed the bullets, and heat shrinked everything. Still need to do the battery connectors. Today I finished the ESC mounting points. I normally try and mask my epoxy, but I laid these spots down freehand trying my best to keep them circular and even. I thickened up the epoxy with silica filler and graphite powder. I tacked in the T nuts last night with small dabs of JB Weld while they were attached to the bottom side of the ESC mount so that they'd set up in the proper location and level with the carbon mount. That worked out well, but it's just slow. ESC mount is done and will get attached once these dry. Waiting on a piece of carbon plate to come in to so I can make the top cover of the ESC mount that will hide as much of the wiring as possible. I also decided to stack my ESC's instead of side by side as it gave me more room to remove the battery sleds.

Looks good Ryan.

Sweet

Decided to re-work my ESC mount. I cut the standoffs down and made it two tiered. Slotted the carbon plate for velcro straps, and put it all back together. Start running all of my cooling lines and got a little too focused before I realized I still don't have my water jackets installed and those need to be tied in.
