>> Sounds like David has just saved me the work of taking a 101 apart and measuring it, thanks! As for the 101 prop size, it's 11" diameter. Before you go off spending $760 on a nozzle, you might want to look up these folks: http://www.gavinscooters.com/ I can't help notice Emile used a Gavin, and it looks like Gavin Scooters, Inc. is right in your neighborhood.

>> Hey Joe,
>> I will send you my cad files on the Minkota 101 Saltwater. I have measured my new 101s and weed 2 prop.  I have also worked out the Marin 37 Kort nozzel design and attachment to the thruster for use on the SeaQuestor project. I will be most likely sending it to my fiberglass fabricator who will cut the assembly in foam  on their 5 axis cnc, ready for a fiberglass overlay.

>> Scott,
>> I use weights from a weight lifting set, the steel ones.  They could go outside on a peg so to speak.  The only problem is you want them at the bottom of the sub.  That means hauling the sub unless you want to get wet.  Maybe a slide system.    I thought the same thing to put the air outside, that would kill my sleek and slippery-ness.  :-)
