        Thanks Shawn!

        It still needs a lot of shaping. You guys think having a squarish opening shape of the canopy would be better to ease taping and more hull access than the teardrop opening of the stock MG29?

            I concur! Square will make my twins easier to access.Any chance of us having special materials?CK? I'm thinking light hull and small motors.I've got a couple 1800 kv Proboats.

              OT: F1 Tunnel Basher!

              OT: Just a small update on my Dumas Hot Shot basher.

              Sanding the old paints away, converting the center section for FE use and finally primer. Still thinking of a nice paint theme.

                37" Cat update:

                Here's an update on the 37" Cat.

                Ride pads mock-up done and the whole front (bow) end was shaped and sanded. I will design the canopy next.

                  You got an outboard yet?
                  Those pads are coming along and I like the sweeping back look of the deck.Is there gonna be a body line at the outside rail there,it would look good to bring the white up to it.Like it looks right now.

                      Do you have some hardware for the transom extension?I think it may look a little big and blocky.If you had the rudder/strut maybe it could be tapered down a bit.Just my opinion here.

                        Yup, I got a REK from Ray Fuller. I got that about 4-5mos ago. I also like the OS lower leg and Jason seems to have one for sale.
                        I also got some stuff from the mail today - HK stuff!

                        Yup, a body line would exist.................. and oh yeah, we shipped your turbine canopy today! Yey! :)

                          Its 20-25% bigger, so hopefully it wont look too big & blocky - maybe the angle the photograph was taken?

                          Talking about rudders, would 15% of the boat hull be the basis for the length of the rudder? If so, a 5.5" - 6" is needed. So 140-150mm rudders would be ideal. Got any suggestions?
                          Maybe this would be a great time to discuss hardware for this upcoming 37" cat!

                              I put a 150mm on my Shocker Cat.I think it'll be alot but won't know till I can play with it again.I can walk on the lake right now.Still doesn't help get parts off the bottom though.
