The problem is, is people are doing a direct conversion. In that case 20°C DOES equal 68°F.

For everyone trying to figure it out, this is a temperature DIFFERENTIAL. Therefore if you take the difference of 20°C to 0°C and convert that to °F you go from 68°F to 32°F, making the temperature DIFFERENTIAL 36°F.

Yes they are at the same location on the thermometer! When the clutch is cooled by 20C it is cooled by 36F not 68 for cryin out loud.
The conversion factor is exacly 1.8.

OK lets go back to school.
Water Freezes at 32F and boils at 212 a difference of 180.
Water freezes at 0C and bboils at 100C, a difference of 100.
Hence the conversion factor of exactly 1.8.

When a clutch is cooled 20C it is cooled 36F not 68.
If a clutch is cooled 68F it cools 38C not 20.

Wow!

Please step back from the thermometers and wall mout thermoststs. haha
I hope you're just fawkin with me!!

a change in temp of 20c is a change of 36F

Holy Chit, some has got more than grade two math comprehension skills!!!

Thank you, thank you and thank you for this post!

Heres something I thought of while ready a post over on another site last night...anyone familiar with the seadoo spark? Fairly different method of constructing a frame. Plastic hull and top deck. My guess is there has to be potential in this somewhere to transfer over to the doo line. I'm unsure if the construction and plastic type are proprietary but it may be. Could composite tunnels be out of the question? hard to say but it would be challenging to make them lighter than what they are considering suspension pickup points.

There maybe something here...compare weights of a Spark to a conventional craft and its obvious they found something. considering production still cant keep up I would be surprised if some similar wasnt in the works

Not to mention the Spark is also half the cost of most PWCs out there. Considering sleds are getting more expensive every year, this is a definite win.

You read one thing wrong and some random person has to take a personal attack at you seems rather uncalled for

Nice math! If your trying to correct someone about something you know nothing about maybe google it first next time


No, you kinda asked for it.

Don't take it to heart to much!
New to the site so we forgive a random response from a random person.

LOL
