aw man, that is rough...at least you are making small steps towards a nice craft.
congrats on the bun in the oven
Thanks dude! I know it will put some fish in the oven too!


-
Go at it now guys!
-
Anyways....we're back now...safe and sound....no fish to show....oh yeah...and two pregnant GF's to "welcome" us home.

-
We were wrapped up in the moment and wanted more!....more...more!!!! So I revved it up full speed and heard an awful grinding noise...the lower case pinion gear...remember?....yes...it gave out and we were Castaways for about an hour or more!:angry5:
-
The breeze blew through our hair as we slowly put all worries aside and smelled the fresh ocean scent!

Anyways, as we were both feeling shitty and out of luck, he told me that he still wanted to go out and test the RIB. I agreed at an instant, so off we went. The weather was a bit windy but nice at the Bay so we launched, powered up and were under way!!!!!
-
The paint is the least of my worries right now...
I plannned on testing the RIB with Anthony (anthonysub) this morning being that we both found out that our GF's were expecting:0....Yeah...that's right fellas! His GF is 6 weeks pgnt. and mine is 5!...must have been the moon phase....Anyways, with so much in mind, he called me at 7:45a.m. (he was expected here at 8:00 a.m.) to tell me he would not be able to make it because he had just totaled his truck....really...no BS!...I saw it and towed it!

Bear with me Dan...

Yes...I went from a long shaft to a short shaft...it's easy to go the other way around since many kits are available but to go to a shorter shaft I had to have the drive shaft cut and welded....oh, and the pinion gear had to be redone since it was missing 2 teeth (keep that in mind). Total cost of engine/labor/parts...$300.00..not too bad...so I thought.

....finished product...

Well, it's been a looooong time coming but here we go. My RIB's (Rigid Inflatable Boat's) maiden Voyage. After 4 months of rebuilding the motor and repairing holes on the Hypalon between dives(I've had that leisure time lately), we were ready to go....well...sort of..

Why don't you come and chum some of this shit!!!

I love the way you made the water flow off his mustache

Marco,
Para los gustos se hicieron los colores;).
I just personally don't like the look of the handles. Nice designs just not my preference of finish. On the other hand (no pun intended), I loved the link of the Ebansub spearguns. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry to interfere here, but have you considered an anatomic handle?
These guys from Spain sell this one for 25 Euros (35 US$) and they look sick!
This is the perfect handle for a toy gun I planned on building the kid across the street

Thinking about it...I shouldn't talk. I do my nails on the grinding wheel. <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">

Kitto guns are not pretty from the pics I've seen. That muzzle that he likes to use is one of the ugliest designs for a speargun IMO.
Not only that but he also has one of the ugliest manicures I've seen

El cabrón me robó la idea!
It's all good. At least I know he's been checking out my guns as well.;)

El Denny's here in Ponce was only serving arroz con gandules!
