              Looks good Sean,

              Do you have any idea what kinda speeds your getting? How does it turn at full throttle?

              Later,
              Mike

                Mike so far it turns great, speeds are a guess right now, comparing to my other hydros, I wanna say mid 50s, I was afraid to test harder cause the rear skis are taped on, until I get her tuned!

                  Nice job ! It never fails to impress me how them spindly little boatie-thangs called riggers can blast through the chop ! Many of my actual boat-looking rigs wouldn't do as well in that stuff. Keep up the good work

                    the motor with a cooling jacket weighs more than the bare hull!!

                      that rigger is pretty impressive, that is pretty good chop and the wind are gale force proportionally... sweet.

                          As long as your using a GOOD double sided tape they will stay on. We have been taping the rears on 60+ mph nitro riggers for years. I wouldn't advise gluing them to the hull. Makes it MUCH easier if you need to do a repair. Another note about taping... If you need to remove them while they are taped on use some dental floss to separate the rear sponsons from the tub.

                          I am really glad you got this boat running. It was only collecting dust in my basement before you bought it.

                            you will have to ask longballlumber I got it from him, and I dont remember the name.
