I used the original driveshaft so the motor will be more to the front. I replaced the gasoline tank about 5cm to the front.
Things to do. Making a custum ebox and cut the exhaust

Very nice so far. I am interested to see how you cut your exhaust pipe, and how much needs to be removed in order to fit into the 750 hull.

Are you going to add in two forward motor mounts? Having only the mid and rear locations means a large amount of the engine weight is not supported. While the ski is not operating this is fine. But during usage you'll have a lot of force moving that engine around. Think of it this way, with six normal mounts, each would carry it's own load. Without the front two, the other four are much more stressed. I'd be very concerned about the rear two mounts failing quickly from higher tension loads than they were designed to cope with. The middle two will have more compression loading. Vibration loads can be nasty.

I like the project but there is a big gap in the story. Have you ridden it yet?
