    cowl locks to save the hatch

    After nearly losing the cowl after a blowover and realizing that just pinning the front doesn't help when the boat lands bass ackwards, I now have the back secured usung some servo arms and some knurled knobs. Simple and hopefully effective.

    That would be very effective as well as adding two layers of tape at the front and back. Many times I've seen one single layer of tape just make the hatch rip right off after a bad spill. Better to use a little extra than have your electronics get wet and spoil our fun at the pond.

      Slick idea. Good use of stuff sitting in the parts box.
