Best DIY Jet Surfboard, Build Pt3

Kabongo !!
Hi mates,
the build is nearly there so I'm dropping the electronics into the board,
I need to make some extra room for the battery-harnesses but it all seems
to fit petty snug and ready for some action,
this 15 cell setup is the same as I've been using in the boat so it should be off the charts on acceleration and a bit faster at top end,
the board is from hot surf 69 and available on ebay and amazon
or direct, here's a link; www.hotsurf69.co.uk/
I want to take it on the bigger river as it's going to need some space,
the river is high at the moment but the board should be ready for the first
sunny day and when the levels have dropped enough,
I don't think I will be ready for it,
so I'm not thinking much about the maiden run,
I'm already having little adrenalin-dumps just thinking about it,
over-stimulation takes it toll over time,
I've got the omeprazole to prove it, lol.
I've got to stay chilled :)
anyway mates,
Have a super smashing night and all the very best,
Cheers
Mark

If you ever get to Florida someday, just know that there's over 200 miles of canals there as part of a phase the developers went through with "water front" property. They figured if they just built canals and the houses on the canals they could sell them as waterfront properties and they weren't wrong. But the result was all these networks of canals like streets and I just realized that to have a rally (like Isle of Man TT but on water) but with personal watercraft. Electric bikes crushed IoM TT and got their own class (Zero class) - seems it's time for watersports to learn what's up. ;-) I'm in Oregon so if I had one I'd be running it in the ocean here...

We have never been able to get the hatches you are using watertight, and would live to see how you will 🙂
Have fun Mark! Greetings from Scotland (will be back home in the Netherlands soon)

Been thinking of something like this for a small 8 foot plywood boat.
Looking good!

Very nice build man. What is your total mAh on that stack.

[@csj9619]

What does "ZLH" stand for on the electrolytic capacitors?

[@raindeergames6104]

ZLH is actually not to important. It's just a specific series of ultra low impedance long life capacitors. Any good quality capacitors will do the trick. I use expensive audi capacitors on my 550amp speed controller for high speed RC runs. Just make sure You spec the voltage correctly.

Can you link the jet box? I want to build it but not sure what to search for
