Post subject: | ANOTHER delta rebuild |
here's a large slideshow of what's been happening with my current project! One of the many t-750 boats that isn't ready yet. Comments, questions and suggestions are welcome - please! PAUSE THE SLIDESHOW, THEN START AT THE END OF THE SLIDESHOW, AND SCROLL LEFT ... I don't know why it put the photo's in backwards. http://s1153.photobucket.com/albums/p51 ... =slideshow Jake Elsey |

Looks Great,when do you think it will be ready?i see the sides are a little lower at the back wont have much freeboard? did you mod the cmc power trim to change the setback? |

Hopefully it will be floating for dunnville - not sure though. What is free board? Sorry haha, I just don't know the term. And the set back distance is the same. I just had to mod/widen it to fit the engine... And there was a lot of unecessary weight on it |

And there was a lot of unecessary weight on it yes that was my hopes to but i have a feeling i wont be or itll be close, was referring to how high the sides at the back will be out of the water when sitting, i like the looks of the cmc trim unit, but knew they were heavy, not sure if anyheavier than building your own jackplate and yammi trim |

With the back sides lowered, with only a 2cylinder engine on it, I imagine it will be fine. (More like I HOPE it will be fine haha). The boats buoyancy hasn't really changed other than it is lighter now. |

There's been another set back in the construction of this baby. Things were moving along smoothly, but there was a f*&$ up so we've had to back track a few steps and undo some work. Really don't know if it will be ready for d-ville. Not giving up yet, just giving an update. |
