Finished the plumbing in both hulls today, inserts and engine hardpoints start tomorrow. Also a pic of the removable splash gaurd. The ear looking extensions are for the molding flange.
That is a major step in the best direction for the sport. People in general have no idea what is going on with pole skis. It would be awesome to be able to turn on the t.v. and pick up some surf riding. Or go to the local book store and have a few copies to chose from covering standups. Congrats...
