The main tanks are all back from having modifications done following fitting up.  I’ve had various changes made.  The viewport lenses have to fit flush to a flat surface so the mounting flanges have had to be built up.  Hopefully the viewports will give me adequate viewing.  I wish I’d made them a little bigger as from the inside, the holes seem a bit small and I think bigger ports or a couple of extra ones wouldn’t have hurted.  Still, too late now.  Water vents on the lower hulls I wanted to look sort of “U Boot” like.  I made a cardboard template and just drew them on by hand until I thought it looked about right.  These tanks were expensive but I think it was worth it to get it right.  Shane at Island Marine Craft has done an absolutely superb job and I am super happy at how these have turned out.
