I have no idea, mine doesnt do that, and its 40-20 inch and wieghs around 15-20 pounds, needs more power though, just short of moving in grass, one question, your last boat had abs wear strips on the bottom, does this one, are they removed for water use, that could easily have a huge affect on water handling, if so, take them off once, seal holse where they where and try that......hope that helped...im quite puzzled here....
yea, there are wear strips, but before they were permanently glued on, i beveled them back 5/8 " . I'm afraid if I try to remove them it will damage the hull......I think I might try it anyway, what do I have to lose? probably be a few days before I get to try it again......the engine mount threw a screw right into the new prop....when I was taking the prop off, I noticed that it had also thrown an aluminum fin off of the flywheel * I wondered where the vibration was coming from* which is probably why it threw the screw.[
] must repair before i go into airboat withdrawal.
so I assume that you guys don't use wear strips? How do you keep the bottom from wearing out? or don't you run on land much?
I might just go ahead a build a ground dragger. would seem I have the power.
HEY, what kind of epoxy is best for gluing birch ply??? Yes....I orderd a 5' x 5' x 1/8" piece of birch today....gonna build a deck-over with wood.
