Good condition Proboat Blackjack 55 Gas RC boat with Zenoah G26M. Has the Warehouse hobbies upgraded clutch. The boat is completely ready to run with a Futaba Magnum 3PM-FS radio and a third channel kill switch, 1 gallon fuel can with pump and extra parts in pictures. The hull has normal dings/ scratch from use and has been patched in a couple areas from normal stress cracks (pictures in post)

For Local Puget Sound Area meet/pickup the boat is $400. I am in Auburn, Wa.

If someone is interested and willing to $400 + shipping cost, then I would be willing to box this monster up.

Hi Darrin,

Pain vs user friendly is a good question. Gas boats can be pain, but not IMO anymore than my electric boats have been. Usually, the gas boats start becoming a bit more of a pain with the clutch less mod motors. I have the stock Zenoah 26 with better upgraded clutch in mine. And Zen's are very well known for being reliable and easy to start. Off the shelf mine is usually 2-3 pulls with choke, it pops, then choke off and 1-2 and it is running. Good days I just pump gas through it. You get about 20-35 min of run time on a tank of gas depending on conditions and how you are running it. In calm water the boat is fun and it runs about 35mph (can do 60+ with mod motor). Where the blackjack really shine's over most anything else is the rougher the water becomes the more fun it becomes. I mean 14-24" rollers are no problem.... and you literally just jump the thing 2 feet in the air. That is a blast....

The blackjack is literally my favorite boat in my collection and was the hardest one to choose to put up for sale. But, I am into my short course trucks now and rarely get out to the lakes.....

Hope this helps, I will be glad to tell you anything else about it.

Are you interested in any trades? I have A 2WD slash short course truck that has A castle brushless system two sets of wheels and tires, two sets of paddles one set mounted, the other set has never been mounted, two bodys, front end has been upgraded. And come with tons of parts. If you are interested I can send pictures. The truck is very nice.

I just sold off my slash. I got into racing and the only short course trucks I would interested in is a Kyosho SCR 2wd or Losi SCTE 4x4.

Keep in mind I am A street rod shop so UPS stops here daily so shipping should be cheaper.

I just called UPS and told them your commercial zip (since, I have your address). And they told me $137 is shipping.... The box can way up to 113ibs. The cost is driven because of the size of the box. When I get home I would double check how big the big box would need to be, but I don't think I was off very far. (but wouldn't be the first time) black jack is 55" hull. And due to size of the box they said that is was dictates cost, not weight.... I was willing to work with price some since you already bought the other boat... I really wasn't looking to let this go less 350...

Sorry for not getting back to you. Had problems come up and then computer completely died, which was just great.... I ended up trading the boat for computer parts.
