        Hey Jeff L,
        Last runs looked like it was riding nice and loose.
        It could be the liter cell setup and the CG,
        But I am sure the choppy waters helped to.
        As for the videoing it looked pretty good for a blonde shooting it,
        What happen at 5:25 ?
        If she fell on her head than she should be fine,
        But not to sure about the camcorder.

            Sound like you got a very good deal to me.

            Hey on the hydro you might want to try the esc on the port side of the motor.
            That would give you more room for the cells to move around,
            And also adds some weight to help stop torque roll to the right from the prop.

                  Ok Lenny I am going to try that right now before I go take it for a few runs. My water outlets are on port side there but I think I can slide ESC over there. Just going to have to change up some of my water lines.

                                Lol John. Ok so it rained all day here in Fl and couldn't run boat. Decided to take Lenny's advice and move ESC port side of motor to help counter torque roll from prop and give me plenty of room for batteries. I removed battery trays and ESC Tray and before I reinstall them should I make batteries horizontal or vertical in hull? I'm sure as far forward as possible. Noticed at higher speeds it bounces from sponson to sponson. Which position of batteries would help boat ride more stable?
