There’s no need to fill with foam but I get your concern. Just drill a couple 1/4” holes, one on each end of bottom to drain water. Foam could trap water. I see you put a stop on shaft underneath to avoid having motor hit bottom of yak which is important. After all my criticism, you did good.
thanks for your effort man! greetings from Turkey
Have you tried adding a PWM to you Watersnake? I’m planning to do this while maintaining the form factor of the motor head (vs external setup)
When you fill the plug with foam doesn't that dry and stick to the tube preventing it from turning?
Why use a metal hose clamp that is going to chew the plastic up when you had the original plastic shaft height adjuster right there?

What size tubing cutter do I use?
was 18lbs enough to troll with the drag of downrigger gear down?
40 lbs ua-cam.com/users/shortsw2JddvdV7QQ
What is your measurement for the tube cut? How long. Thanks
Wouldn't it have been easier if you removed bottom part and resized the wires?
Like it
Nice
I hope you dumped out those metal filings as the electric motor below won’t like them.
Since this is a job which has no harsh chemicals, TAKE THE DAMNED RUBBER GLOVES OFF!!!!
They are textured for grip, maybe your eyesight isn't the best.
