First Sin of the Rum Runner Swap Shop. Ebay needs to be put into the title!

I always find it humorous to see these eBayers just pop on here to do nothing more than sell their wares never to be seen again......

Cheers,

I fixed the title. Thanks for the suggestions.

The best defense is not to replay to the rest of the comments....

Mike,

Probably because they get flamed over an unwritten rule . . . :P

Is this such a big deal that you go on and on? I fixed it. If it still bother you, report it to the moderator and get my post deleted. I really do not have any problem with that.

It is also interesting to see how you jumped all over me and judge me based on the registration date and one mistake.

Peace and Mary Christmas to all of you.

well know you know... it's not bugging me at all.. but i think that a sticky post needs to be put up to state that EBAY needs to be in the title of a post!

but i saw your rigger on ebay a few days ago when i was browsing and that rudder is definatly different to say the least... it's a big one! does the boat need the rudder that far in the water? im just wondering!

I have to say I don't see the big deal with people not putting Ebay in the title as long as it deals with FE boating. Personally I don't like to surf the junk at Ebay and rather see a Legit link to something decent like this rigger!
My question is the strut. Looks cool, I like the swept back look. But cant see very close, does it need some kind of nose cone?

Welcome and i hope you can sell your boat. It looks good.

I built it because I like doing it. I did not do any tuning because I was afraid of hitting something or overturning it during a testing. It is a lot of $$$ invested in it. Also I wanted to go the cheapest possible way to build a rigger assuming that I have all the electrical stuff from the days of flying airplanes. I tried it and it floats well but that is it.

- Yes, the blade is little bit big and needs tuning.
- I am not sure if it suppose to turn on a dime or not. I guess the rudder can be trimmed off / modified.
- I guess a nose cone would help but it is a matter of fine-tuning, I think.

It looks like it is not a good time to sell a boat. I will probably fine-tune it first.

Buy the way, I believe that I discussed this rigger here about 2y ago, but can't find my user name any more. Also my email changed since.
