Both fins on the intake were busted up pretty bad so I decided to pull it out and fix it while the pump was out.

Is yours the delta bottom too? I ended up putting a round radius intake into the Hondo so I could go to the round bottom.... not sure how much of a difference it makes, it was an ass dragger with the flat bottom thou.

For a few bucks you could piece together a Berk  :thumbup:

Still weighing my options. 

The original intake is for a flat keel (delta pad), I have an intake for a rounded keel (thanks Ray) that I could install but I don't know if I'm ready to rebuild the bottom yet.

I've thought about getting a Berk for it but I haven't tripped over any in the standard SCJB price range  ;D

Shouldn't be a lot of work to put in the other intake. But yeah, you are THIS far down, a Berk would sure be nice!  ;D

It took me 2 days to set the intake and build the bottom to a round keel, on my back under the boat  ;D Kinda wish I flipped it though.

I am seriously considering flipping the boat and working the bottom.  It has several deep scratches that need repair and the places where the original fuel tank mounts were located are still a little out of shape after being repaired on my back (not fun).
