    Picture update time: I got the hull drilled for stingers



    And mounts done




    Tubes are next,Going to try to set them up before I epoxy the mounts so I can get a good alignment when I glue it all together.

      I added some colour to the interior,got the tubes done and motors tacked.Here are the pics.




      Going to let it harden for awhile before moving on to tube braces and clothing in the mounts.

          That is a nice consistent layup of cloth with tinted epoxy.

                something different. the metallic green color of the castle motors would look killer with that yellow under the hood

                  The way you guys did this should "slim" the rear a bit as well.Is that hull going to Scott?
                  Sorry I missed the question. 2 New hulls was pulled from the mold with the new measurement. I think one is going to Scott and the other one is for his friend.

                          I was wanting to do a Komodo dragon on the deck as this is Mardon's flagship but I am up for suggestion's.You never know what will strike my fancy.I usually start with an idea butit changes somewhat as I go.

                          I was thinking if I could get a decal of the outline/detail of this dragon only I could airbrush in some colour.

                          Here is a colour pic komodo.jpg

                          I don't know,I may be going the wrong way here with the loyalty/flagship thing.

                            I like the hull without air intake, it is nice.

                            Why did you take those stingers ?? They are made for deep vee hulls.

                            Look to the •PowerTrimm V PX-1, those stingers fit Genesis hull, 65,00 €uros each

                              Shawn there is so many designs to do on a boat I get truely lost when it comes to painting and graphich for my boats. If you wanted to do a komodo theme maybe airbrush or have someone make up vinyl of like a dragon skin print on the deck or the side of hull. But hey what the hell do I know lol

                                They don't fit Alfa.It was a long and exhaustive search for stingers.The only others that fit were "click drives".The mould for the hull has been changed now though to fit normal 110mm stingers.
