What sort of boat would you like, mono, cat, hydro or rigger?
What would you like to do with it, running for fun or racing?
Want it to turn on a dime in both directions, happy just turning right at speed, or not bothered about turning at all and want max speed?
Want an RTR or want to build it yourself?

Have a look at minicatracing (http://www.minicatracingusa.com/) if your interested in an RTR, they have all types, the mini Eco turns insanly sharply in both directions and is self-righting but isn't as quick as the others and doesn't handle rough water well, the velocity mono can take pretty rough conditions for a mini and is self-righting, the velocity cat handles well in both directions and is fairly good in the rough but isn't self-righting, the mini starship is fast and turns well to the right when fitted with a turn fin, and the mini hydro is very fast down the straights.
