How rough is the water usually? Whats your speed expectations? Budget? Do you have a way to retrieve it easily? I have 7 boats, I could probably make a decent recommendation Lol. I would take a look at anything Proboat for a good RTR boat. They're new riverjet jet boat is pretty neat, and is self-righting.

It's Lake George in NY, It's pretty calm except when boats fly by then you get a wave or two. Speed 30 to 40 MPH maybe. Looking to have fun and we will have a boat on the Lake to get it if need be. |

A fun boat is aquacraft gunslinger its rtr and brushless. The outher one is aquacraft wildcat ep for rough water or as mxkid261 says pro boat is also great all depends on what you want to spend. Pm me if you are in the market I have a few I might let go.

I would stay away from a larger boat like that made of ABS plastic it will split easily. First boat 5 years ago was a spartan, the hull split on the one side from a flip at like 50. And I've already read of a m41 splitting open. If its your first boat I would steer towards a v-hull. The Aquacraft revolt 30" is nice, or the ProBoat's are very nice. An Impulse 31 would probably suit you perfect, or the larger 36" Voracity. A cat will handle a lot different. You should join the forum on Offshore Electrics there is tons of info there and reviews. :-)
