Glassing in all the mounts: I must say Rickter did a great job putting all the mounts in this hull for an EOM install. Since I'm using the limited slip 3.3 gallon tank with built in battery box, I had to cut out the OEM gas tank mount on the left. The rest of the mounts I found very...

Controll Panel Install: holes, and bilge outlets to sleep on overnight while I mount the ColdFusion (Now Blowsion) e-box mount and bilge pump using a blowsion mounting kit. I decided to put the control panel on the left so when riding I can still throttle using my right hand and still turn on...

Handpole Bottom and Breather Tube Install: The build is getting fun. If you want your friends to come over and help, buy a really good NY Style Pizza, this normally gets them over in 15 minutes or less. Installed the bottom portion of the handpole. First thing we noticed is the tubes fit...

This build required the use of 4 pool noodles from the dollar store. Blue tape it in and then reinforce the inside only with duct tape, this held for the entire build then removed cleanly when we were done. We used 2 here, the extra padding while working in the engine compartment was really...

Preperation: The fun part over every build is getting all your parts setup and ready to install. We have a 3 car garage and used every inch of it!

Finishing up the pump area: I decided on the RRP cut intake grate, fits perfect with zero grinding. Gotta love it! Note; I purchase the Medium ride plate and will trim it down to a small if I decide its too long, figured that's cheaper than buying 2 plates. Have to try and save $ somewhere.

Pump Shoe Install: The Blowsion 148 pump shoe fit close but in order to get it right required a fair amount of dremel and grinding work. We decided to fiber glass the pump shoe in. Its all aligned with the midshaft, let it sit over night. I had lots of help on this part of the build...

The bedplate issue was resolved after many hours and days of brainstorming and a little bit of fabrication. BK - Thank you for your first tip of moving the motor mounts out. It didn't solve the problem but was able to step back and look at the problem from a different perspective. After...

YEP thanks. They installed a mounting plate backwards. The bolts are near impossible to remove. Any suggestions. We have used a impact driver and a 1/2 inch impact wrench and dont want to strip the bolts.

The first big issue I just ran into is when trying to align the engine to the midshaft. The engine sits 5.8 mm to high in the front and the rear. I am running the OEM motor mounts 6R7-44517-00-8S. Starting to think this hull was manufactured incorrectly. We have tried bringing the front...

Turf is standard diamond cut. I ordered extra padding, front sponsors, and ninja footholds as options with the FS build.

Just came in, let the building begin6

Yes perfect my new Rickter is Blue Digital Camo!!!!!!! Thank you McDog, PM sent

Hey Mike sounds great, let me know when you do. Thank you.

Where have to be 2 TPE stickers somewhere? Bueler….Bueler...

Yes I think I order it in January. The FS seems to take a little longer because they don't normally make them.

Passing time, still waiting, any day now. I was able to register this as a 2019 Rickter without any problems. Hope to hit the water soon.

Great build, where did you get the waterline quick disconnects? GLWS

FYI - Trim ring still up for sale it was used on a 144 pump. The question asked is will it work on a 155 and I honestly don't know.
