I keep thinking I would love to get a fast boat, then I remember we're in the middle of the desert and where the hell am I going to run it.

Beautiful!!! I wish those could handle waves. I love them but need more than a racing boat.

New boat came yesterday took freggin long enough I told him to mail it priority and it went parcel from WA it was a long wait. He did a really nice job packing it though and included the lil stand for it. It is definitely in MINT and what appears to be unused shape. The paint and graphics are really cool too . I am going to put a receiver in it this weekend and try it out. Its a lot smaller then I thought it was going to be but thats ok. On to the pics, stay tune for the action ones



Next to my villain, you can see its alot smaller.







Tekin water proof ESC and what looks like a really nice 10 turn, I may pull it out and chuck it up on the lathe for a quick pass.

Thanks for looking
-Mike

Elephant bute, Navajo Damn, Blue water lake. Some golf courses, motel pools
just off the top of my head. There are plenty other small areas with lakes.


Randy those are some NICE boats. I might have to get something I live right off a Lake.

Mike, I noticed in that second to last pic that theres an opening around the prop coming out of the hull. how does water not get in? wouldnt it seem like water would come rushing in ?

ahh, mind snapping a pic when you got the chance? Im working on a micro, and thats the problem right now..I plop it in the water and it leaks from where the prop comes out, I tried to drill a hole in a piece of bicycle tube and glue it on with shoe glue but it still leaks a little. let me know what it do son, peace
