Ordered a screw extractor set (not the one from the link) and tried it today. Got it out very easily. Thanks for the tip Daniel.

Have ordered the starter, will take some time for it to arrive in the Netherlands. Will have a look then. Relay was out of stock, will wait till they have them again. Mike do you know what size the mounting holes are, is this US or metric size?

As i don't have the tools to built the handle, i was thinking of sticking a speedmaster handle to the starter. Do you think it will fitt the starter?

Great project Bruce, i was also thinking the same and built one. Had asked Mike this week about what he was using fro his starter. Also interested in the pulley you are using. Is it about same size as from a dynatron for example?

Thanks Daniel. I presume with a ez out you mean a screw extractor? https://www.amazon.com/Irwin-Industrial-Tools-53535-Extractor/dp/B00004YOBF/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=Ez+Out&qid=1682788952&sr=8-3 What size did you use for the nipple?

Great looking Slingshot Buckshot, you make it always look so easy. Who builts that cowl, looks great. The discs around the allen head bolts from the motor mounts (not sure what they are called). Where can you buy them or built them yourself?

Good to read you liked it and that you can fix it. Was there last year but could not make it this year.

John, if you want to rotate them, there are better tools available, like a Hose Clamp Plier. See link below: https://www.irwin.com/tools/pliers-adjustable-wrenches/hose-clamp-pliers Or use a cheap wrench and put the dremel on it to make you own: That having said, like Daniel and other saying...

see example below where i put 3 turn fins side by side.

Thanks for the info Mic. Did you also play with the turnfin for that? Or change to other turnfin. I know there are different versions available for the normal JAE21, like for example one the David Preusse. I started with assembling the ski. There are not too much pictures on the internet about...

Too bad about the damage Dirk Jan, hope you can fix it. I was not able to go Hank, maybe next time.

You want a 12v or 110v charger? I have one like this, works till 4s: https://www.intlwaters.com/threads/chargers.80954/

Thanks for the tip Mic. What did improve with moving them forward? I'll add some extra set of boom tubes, same as you did, to test. Have laminated the boom tubes in the tub and closed of the nose compartment. Next time i'll add some 2 component foam in there.

Edit, i see that the v2 plans are no longer there. But you still can download the V1 plans.

Check the onedrive link. Marcel also put the v2 there. So you can also cut that one yourself.

CoCr?

Tnx Mike, was thinking the same.

Tnx Michael and Tyler. Will have a look on the knife rudder. What kind of knife did you use for this? I've ordered a small single water pickup that i'll laminate in the ski. Was finally able to do some glueing. Have added some extra 1/4" triangluar wood strips in the tub, glued in the...
