Looks like a good ski to start with. I just bought a buddies old square hull. We'll probably use it for our nitrous project.

OH, nice signature picture. For a seconds I thought you were either 24 inches tall and sitting backwards on the Superjet or that was a HUGE superjet. haha.

ok lets get opinions on what i should do to it. shorten the back, move the pole position forward... the sky is the limit. So let me get some opinions on what to cut and where i should cut it. I would like to make it rickter style with the forward pole position and tapered rails. let me know what you would do.

whats the history? paul told me he had a 951 in it. all the mounts are still in there. so if anybody has a 951 f/s let me know.

so is this boat known by just about everybody or what?

do you think it would be more of a PITA than it's worth to run a 951?

Dont run a 951 unless you want to race. Hack this baby up, pole on the nose shorten it 4 or 5 inches, do crazy things to it.

I almost got this hull from paul before you did but i got that purple one.

Make it wider at bottom, shorter nose and shorter at back. Lower hood with drains. Pole pivot forward and tray job like that http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/52967 , remove rail from the front like fs-1 and matrix hulls.

I think it will be mine next squarenose recipe.

Im thinking just add 20mm divinycell sheets at hull sides and lay some carbon fiber top of those. It will also work like reinforcement and will be easy to add. And nobody may not even see it because of rails. And dont make upper part of hull roundish, remain those fine squarenose lines at hood...
