Hell of a flip, nice!

I think I'm getting rid of my FE's and shooting for an Enforcer Manta Ray or Magnum 57 next spring. I'd rather spend more time running than dicking around with batteries every 10 minutes. I love the speed of a FE, but if I can get a 55"+ boat going 40mph or more without having to charge batteries all the time, that's good enough for me.

Then gas is the way to go. Run time on this boat would have been close to 45 mins PER TANK of gas.

The I used to have a magnum 57 and it was a good boat. However, I'd suggest buying a used boat off jrcbd.com. that's where you'll get the most bang for your buck.

Enforcer boats are almost indestructable. My friend has one that is over 10 years old that still looks great.

Well, this boat is in the hands of it's new owner in upstate NY.
Fed Ex didn't crush it in transit

So now to reveal how much I bought it for:
I bought 4 boats off a guy for a total of $70, this was one of them.

Great deals are out there, just keep your eyes open. The money I made off this flip is already gone, spent on RC crawler parts and a MIG welder.
