I stuck the track to 16ft aluminum angle 3/4X3/4 and then sent ss self tappers into the ribs through the track and aluminum. cant separate that way. :nana

Let us know how the waterglide turns out, I've read good and bad reviews.
Honestly, I bought it for my old boat to add buoyancy and increase capacity....it didn't add any speed to that one but it had a 60hp. My new boat is 5 ft longer and much heavier but it has a 115. The new boat increased 4mph without a prop change. The current 15x15p was turning 5100@25.6mph now the same setup turns 5600@29.3mph I am dropping one pitch to get the rpms closer to 6k. I actually like them over 6k because I tow 4 jet skis every time we head out. I have no issue watching for over rev when alone, which is never anyway. I would say it serves its purpose. It adds 1200lbs of flotation and now with the bigger motor adds mph. I would say it would be awesome with a 150 plus. but the big factor for me was increased capacity of people.
