      Hahaha, thanks bud im trying to talk someone into getting up early with me and filming some real footage. This is still kind of a fixed side angle wich doesnt give the real effect of how fast she goes.time to look for another gps on e-way....

            Wolf nice job that thing screams! Killer video of the morning life in the harbor! Was that a fisherman out there next to you? He must have been pissed It's too bad that guy on the kayak spoiled your good water. Didn't sound too good at the end. Did she blow over? ruined the GPS?

                      I do not understand why soldering is not holding better than the Loctite. You did resolder those right?

                      Jesse's newer ones are with Loctite.

                          Don't think Jesse has installed his yet for the intruder.

                          Gunnels has gun solder that is stronger than anything else. Might be what Ed Hughey uses but not sure. I have not gotten any but considering it. I think some of it is the cable...not the shaft. Cable does not take solder well. You must use a good flux with it.

                            Thanks jeff. Wanna make me a couple more? I think by making them 3/16'' shorter will allow me to run some of the solder up the shaft and that way i wont have to worry about them not being able to bend. Also id like to have them drilled as far down the shaft as possible for a larger bonding surface.

                              Sorry to hear about your loss ... they were a matched pair. If you want to send me the remaining prop I can match it up.
