need mod help on my EP Apro boat

[superek4]

Not sure why ur motor mount cant work.


Any pics of the coupler made by Moh???

heres are the pixs

the coupler made by Mok is made of brass but the hole is slightly out of alignment. when i hand turn the prop the motor moves.

i believe if i just leave it & start the boat the shaft will be destroyed.


the motor adapter i brought from holmes, i need the two inner hole for my motor mount but it has no thread.

i made another water pickup from the rear is that ok? i just use expoxy from the inside to hold it. will it leak?

I still cant visualise abt ur motor mount problem.

The water pick up us made is no good, it will cause lots of drag.

And should be flushed with the hull surface like tis :





Its lots of work, so I told u to go with my method.

damm so how can i cover the hole now? it will look ugly

[Adrianli]

Since u already made the hole, just reverse the direction of that and slowly dremel or file the excess protruding nipple.


If u wana cover the hole, tape the hole from the outside. Use 30min epoxy and fibre cloth on the inside. Thatz what I do too.
