    That is the small water hole just behind my lawn.....obviously without the water. It's so dry, there is barely any water under the wussy bridge, and the pond is down a good 3 feet.
    Here's one more video zipping around the yard

    I spoke with Jay a couple months ago when I ordered my clutches, emailed him some pictures, and a link to this thread also. He was already aware of the build, but has no interest in copying anything. I take that back, he said if I would give him the $80K for the new tub mould, he would start making them. Well, that's not gonna happen, so I guess they will all have to be custom builds.

    The MaxII Bigfoot did well on it's maiden trials at Ashtabula this last weekend.
    There's still a few bugs to work out, and a couple small changes I need to make (like header wrap). The thing turned out scary fast, so it will get a rollcage. It floats well and is stable in the water(not rear heavy with the big motor), the tires however do not swim well. At idle they move you along, but give it a little throttle and all movement stops.
    I received lots of comments on how BIG it it.......and I had the opportunity to compare it to Don's Hustler 980IMG_1227.jpg

    His is bigger What a monster that is. Nice machine Don!

    I'll wash the mud off and inspect the tub seam, but I am confident it held up well(zero leaks in the water).
    I talked to alot of people about the epoxy I used.....
    Here is the link to the kayak video, to show how strong the stuff is.

    What an impressive machine you have built. She looks great in person, and I am positive that other members will be utilizing your design in future projects. Big props to you for being the first to take on this type of project!!! She looks as good in person as she does in the pics.
    l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!
