Your MG that started off as a hull

[jasoncyclone]

Wow Shawn, I love the looks of your new strut. I wonder if it will change the ride attitude of the boat? Please let un know the next time you run her! I think it will help prevent blowovers...slightly....We shal see.

I'm not sure about a 180 with the 56.The 1717 pulls over that in my DF 35.Or so I'm told.I'll let you know soon as my CC Ice 240 is in there now.If the clouds would clear I could run.

I guess I would have to wait till I can fork a higher amp esc than the T180 before buying a 56 motor.

Here's the glass prototype of my 40" cig boat under hull. I also received the 3/16 strut and rudder for the 37" Cat - however, the rudder may be too big as it is the same rudder blade used in my gas boat. But as you can see it uses a short bracket from the transom.

That's the same rudder as on the Shocker. Moving right along with that cig eh,I like it so far.Let's see if I like it better than a PB Shockwave.Then you'll have a sale.

I haven't had any blowover's since the new paint Jason.But as you could see from the slow-mo vid,it is right there.

PS:I'm gonna do your CF tonight.It's ready to go,I just had to find more epoxy.Man,I've been busy.

Looking good,

My rudder is 4"1/2 to from bottom of the bracket to,
I was thinking on adding 1" to the bracket to make it longer off the transit on my 36" shockwave and see what happen with handling,
Also just saw this last night for my 5692 730kv, Make a wake gave me the link when I looking a the 55" cat video.
I may give it a try with more info. http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...-seaking-130HV

It'll be lonely for the hull all the way to Canada ................. should I accompany it with a 37" Cat too? hahahaha!

I cant recall if it was Jerry or Jason who mentioned that a mono deep vee will benefit from a longer rudder bracket while a Cat should be shorter.
I tried to dry fit both the strut and rudder to the 37" Cat - the extended transom could only fit the strut, so I may position the rudder bracket to the secondary transom on the right side. Maybe a custom bracket maybe in order - still needs more planning.

Since Seaking has a new 130HV esc - would that mean Turnigy would have the same esc out soon?

The cat won't be a problem mounting a rudder with twin outrunners...

Cool!!! I have been very busy also. Im working on puting Corvette C5 brakes on my S10. Im getting all the parts together.

I was going to put that Camaro motor in my old S 10.I like the little trucks.My 4X4 was tuff.What size are the rotors? 11"

[jasoncyclone]

Rotors are 12"!! I just got Z06 calipers! I can't wait to get them installed. I have way to many projects going on!!!! FE boats, gas boats, bathroom remodel, and brake upgrade on my s10!

I don't know how you can do so many projects at once,I can't/won't.It's overwhelming.
12",that's alotta whoah power.I put 11" Pariseine rotors on the Camaro when I found out 10"s weren't enough to stop 4500 lbs from 150 +.

I guess I cant blame him - I do multi-tasking as well! gotta keep the blood pumping somehow.

But wait Jason - didnt you stop gas boating awhile?
Stephen did tell me that he saw you selling a Zen in Jim's Dock awhile back.

[srislash]

Hey Mardon,I just knocked 1 1/4" off that rudder.I'm going to try it out later.I can't take it anymore,too many boats in the living room not to run.Even if it is threatening snow.
