<div dir="ltr"><div>Joe, </div><div>The one piece collar with a slot that I designed lets the collar slide past the thruster skag and forward to the down shaft tube, and then bolts to the skag to lock into position. I was planning on using a rubber gasket as the separator between the collar and thruster tube. The fins on the kort I was planning to weld to both collar and kort. The fins would be a shape and thickness as the existing skag. Since I am planning on making it all out of stainless, the fewer the number of moving parts the better. The KISS principal, since I will have to be doing the servicing. </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./" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.psubs.org/projects/1371101163/msvalvinjr./</a></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><font color="#888888">
