Thanks so that is Bat Compartment =160mm = 6.3"
Ballast tank = 143mm = 5.63"
Motor compartment = 165mm =6.5"
Looks like you using a standard 7.2v Car stick type battery in there Alec - with room spare.- I like it. So sick of LIPOS and those pesky restrictions certain club here places on them!
I'm toying doing the Skipjack or an original Permit (no towed array fairing), the Skipjack SD would be ideal for both boats. But I'll ask to see if David could make one up of the same OAL but taking the Bat compartment down to 6" even, the Ballast tank to 5.5" and the back end the 9" making the 20.5" that these are overall.
Alec is your SD valve in the ballast tank?
Thanks
John
