I do have one small leak, but only because I decided to remove the water box mount and had to remove a bolt after I had it sealed. I plan on fixing it, but I have to remove the floor to do it.
I hear good things about yamaha donor skis. I'm really new to this - is there any reason why you exposed so much of the original fiberglass hull to the underside? My instinct would be to try to limit it just to the intake and jet, if i can. Really appreciate you sharing your build!!
This was my first build, and I really wasn't sure how I was gonna do it. But after cutting the ski apart, it only made sense to me to use everything that was already there to mount to. Less fabrication. This made it super easy to build, and the fiberglass hull on the ski is way stronger than the boat itself so it was a no brainer. The boat runs out perfect with no trim and doesn't porpoise at all!!
