<DIV>Hi Joe,</DIV>
<DIV>This looks great! Is the kort designed to fit the Minn Kota prop I sent you? I like the thru bolt detail and the 2 piece collar. When will you have a file I can send to a cnc machine?</DIV></DIV>

<DIV>I have finalized the design of the Kort Nozzle assembly for a Minn <SPAN>Kota</SPAN> 101 as per the dimensions provided me by another builder. There are a few detail pictures on my project page. <A href="http://www.psubs.org/projects/1371101163/msvalvinjr./" shape=rect rel=nofollow target=_blank>http://www.psubs.org/projects/1371101163/msvalvinjr./</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Some assumptions, this is drawn for 11 3/8' <SPAN>dia</SPAN> square tip prop, 3 7/8" body, again with dimensions provided. It requires a concentric attach ring as you see here in SS in the style of a propeller shaft anode. The beauty of that is that it allows fore and aft adjustment as required.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I will provide the CAD files and 2d drawings with B.O.M, required to Jon for download over the next week or so for whatever process a builder chooses. The nozzle can be scaled to accommodate other prop and body dimensions as required.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Doing these little projects will help me tremendously when my time comes to build.</DIV><SPAN class=yiv3948439252HOEnZb><FONT color=#888888></FONT></SPAN>
