Nice. Now all we need is the weather

she looks beautiful

H3O+ mounted. Need to add a skirt board to clean up the look. Will get the aluminum powder coated over the winter.

great job

@YYZRC looks great!
I think I would leave it as is. A skirt might catch too much water while getting up on plane and at speed.

Wow, nice job, awesome. I like how high it sits you will have no issues while getting up on plane.

YYZRC

Thanks guys. @aero3113 the skirt will only extend down 2”; just enough to cover the upper aluminum frame and the bolt heads.

YYZRC

The H3O is a good rig but the winch arm is very cumbersome and poorly designed. Also, the winch body isn’t stainless and for the extra $600 they charge for the upgrade from crank to electric I expected better. It looks like a bunch of parts from Amazon warehouse deals.

Solar is wired up and anchor light done.

it look very nice

@aero3113 have you replaced the trucks in your cabin door? Wondering which size. The train rail on my door cracked this winter due to ice so I figure I may as well replace the trucks at the same time. 

aero3113

@YYZRC No, I haven’t had to replace them.

YYZRC

Rando cam is up!

Looks like it should be hanging from the belly of a Predator drone.

Very nice @YYZRC !!

YYZRC

Got the door apart to replace the trucks and train.

So did this truck work on the door? I am thinking about doing the door on my 342 but just cant figure out how the wheels would work on that track,

YYZRC

Haven’t received them yet. Will post when done!

raybo3

@YYZRC great thanks for getting back to me. Hopefully they work. 

davidbrooks

@raybo3 I am in the same mode. My door is getting hard to slide.

raybo3

@davidbrooks yeah I really hope this works.

Did some calcs for putting a bigger fridge in the cockpit bar area and the Dometic CRX 80 will fit with some mods and killing the blender. Sink can stay for now but I will likely replace the countertop this winter with one piece. 

Ordered the fridge in stainless - supposed to arrive in a month or so. 

YYZRC

Added a dimmable “romance” light for late night dinner/drinks. It is wired with the cockpit lights. The other light is wired to the hardtop “spreader” lights circuit. 

The Blue Sea dimmer seems like a quality piece. 

Will mount everything nicely next to the starboard side speaker once I get the USB socket.

@YYZRC , when you do you counter top upgrade, maybe make a bigger garbage pail??

YYZRC

Since my custom starboard cabinet won’t work anymore, I was thinking about putting a garbage drawer next to the new fridge (where the old fridge was).

That would be nice 👍🏻👍🏻

My track on the 270 is way different and to be honest, a better design..there are no wheels but a ball that rides on the top edges of the track. If the track gets crap in it, does not really cause a problem. Those wheels look like a problem.

I was having trouble with mine when I first got the boat- I looked at the bottom track and it was loose- so I got her back down tight and the door well you could not budge it. The track on the top is nice and straight- the floor has a slight curve to it so we I got it tight it just bound up- so I got some washers and got it tight and flat...

YYZRC

Blender recess is gone. 

I think this part might have been overbuilt.
