Super Jet Bit of a basket case

[Jhucke]

Bought a 2014 hull today for a decent price but it is genuinely molested. I suspect the original owner got the backflip itch, bought a brand new superjet, f'ed it up trying to backflip with a big motor, realized there's no way, then bought an aftermarket hull.. I'm here trying to de-f-it-up. Open to suggestions or thoughts.

So first issue.. I think the guy was running a power factor pipe or something, I don't know. The fact is that my battery box mounting boss threads are filled in with what seems like epoxy. I'm thinking my only option here is to cut out those bosses and glass in new mounts. What do you think?

Next issue is the awesome trim cable hole going through my bulkhead to the pump. My plan is to try and run a tube with water fittings on each end to be able to run a stock siphon and dual cooling at the same time. Not sure where to source tubing or how to seal this puppy off without completely cutting out my tray. Although I may end up having to do that anyway because the footholds in it right now are being cut out. Those appear to be professionally done, though. Not expecting issues with those.

Thanks for helping me out

I would start by finding the thread size and trying to drill out the epoxy and retap the holes. Might be a long shot but easier if it works.

You could just seal the bulkhead holes as well.

I sourced a aluminum thru hull for dual cooling line on amazon. I had a thin one busted off flush on a fx1 I bought.

Scuff those battery mounts with sandpaper to get a good idea of where the brass insert is and what it might be filled with. You can then mark the center and drill it, gradually increasing size you can probably get to a point where you can dig the rest of the epoxy out or run a tap into it to clear it out.
