I can get him to tie front into mounts if you like.
Darin modded his tray and tied into the front mounts.
But when I Raced my UL in the pic above I never had any issues with flexing as far I could tell.
read the whole thread ,watched some your videos .your doing well .my only critique would be the rudder cooling mods .while it looks like it would work well i got to wonder how much extra drag those tubes are causing ?
the effect they have on steering?
the extra drag they create can also make the rudder "pull" on the transom .
there's a reason a rudder has a knifes edge on it so to speak .you added 2 speed bumps
those are just my thoughts .other then that you seem be doing well .

Sammie. It's obvious you edited or 'doctored up" your 100% all stock UL-19 video that supposedly hits 74.7mph on the stock prop that you prepped. It didn't dong on me until the "click sound" at the 5:13 mark in the video as you were reaching for the gps and I noticed the video changed suddenly when the "click" is heard at the 5:13 mark in the video. It's obvious that part of the video was from before your run...The other big giveaway was your cooling line being off of the esc when you were pulling the gps out of the boat that "displayed 74.7mph" after you pulled the boat from the water. You can see the ESC cooling line had been disconnected from you installing the battery in the boat in the "walk around" picture at the 5:47 mark as well. The ESC cooling line had to be removed when you initially put the batteries in the boat due to the tight fit around your second cooling tube exit that you have on the boat. You must have forgot that you had left the esc cooling line off while you were "reverse engineering" the run, when you filmed that portion of the video...LOL. However you didn't forget to put it on before you actually ran the boat as you can see when you are placing the "cleared out gps" in the boat at the 2:02 minute mark in the video the esc cooling line was on... The boat would have been full of water if you would have made your run with the ESC cooling line off during that run...LOL! Again almost a great job on this one and everyone knows that the Garmin Forerunner and Fortrex series gps units will dispay the last mph reading when they are turned on....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_L36UTNxg8
well well well....Is he finally going to come clean? A new video is released saying "call off the dogs".. Let's see if he is going to do the right thing...
66.7mph and 74.7mph is a long ways apart Brother...71.2mph or 71.8mph is a long ways off from the "super fake run" of 74.7mph also. 70-71mph is about tops for the stock prop. Buy you a Chris Hoffmann (dasboata) prepped abc prop and you will be in mid 70's with of course a good tune, If he will sell you one since you threw the slur out on your YouTube comment you posted. sad, sad, sad...
Man, this thread started out so good. For someone who's new to boats, I was actually impressed with sammy for his mods, observations and corrections. Also, for him to take advice from everyone was great. But his detailed observations on the boats behavior during his runs was impressive because I can guarantee you most newbies are not like you sammy. Now, you just have to do another video and like you said unedited. . .straight video without having the boat out of the picture for even a second. But you can see most of the experienced guys here have been there and done that and they know what's going on. Mark, holds the record for two of his boats with only thing that is not stock is his awesome Dasboata prepped props. But the way he did his videos, there are no doubts at all his videos are doctored up and he makes no secret how his setups are as he will share his setups with anyone.. . .a great guy as some don't but have big big claims. So do another video and take a look at how Mark did his videos and go from there. So good luck with getting it in the mid 70's mph.
