Make sure you've got enough room for all the gear if you guys go electric. Looking good!

[John boat]

Looking for advice

[Chilli]

I just don't know what to tell you. That looks like a really tough conversion.

I would either look for a used 20 motor for that boat and go nitro or abandon the project and do one of these: http://mlboatworksrc.com/index.php?m...products_id=62

Mike something Danny got me working on for him again its a 21 pay n pak but instead of a nitro we are going with the UL1 set up

Before you get too deep in the build, cut off the air traps from the heel of the sponsons all the way back. That is a 30 year old design that was made to trap air under the hull to help lift it. With today's power available in both FE and nitro you do not need them and you want to air to release when it clears the sponsons, the boat will be a kite if you leave them on.
