                          For the record, this is the first and will be the LAST ABC prop I work on, I'm not even doing anything special to it just balancing, thinning, sharpening, and polishing for now, the material seems much harder which I can live with but there's soo many imperfections in the casting it's rediculous!!

                              I actually got to weigh it all yesterday, it's 14.8 lbs with everything in it ready to go.

                                Well got the 10s jae out finally, it ran 77.8 and is pulling super hard to the right, so much so that it is causing the boat to run completely crooked when I try to run it straight and it's the turn fun causing it, it's pulling the right sponson down into the water HARD so ill have to kick it forward and try it again. Still ran 77.8 for its first time out! Way more left in it!!!
