[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 161354, member: 1523"] Atatchment method is probably going to be stainless machine screws into 3/16" angle or flat stock welded to the strakes and the side junction and have the UHMW bridge across it. The strakes are right around an inch high and 8 inches apart, leave the back open so the water will run out on launch, maybe drill some angled holes 1/4" diameter so it'll drain faster. It should plane fine and run as skinny as before if not better. I'm not 100% sure about around the intake though. I know I'll have to make a new spoon out of UHMW and this'll give ma chance to build a ride plate for the pump. It sounded like a gun going off when that rock caught the trim tab...
