Awe man just when I swore myself off rtr's they go and do this... Man does this throw a wrench into my current plans.

I see it's an inch and a half longer. Is this a new hull I wonder??? I also notice the electrics are mounted all to the back & the packs apear to be behind the sponens & not up front. Is the weight on a hydro suposed to be as far foward as possible?

That it is....& they are the only one who seem to be getting off their @ss and putting out new product for us. I don't see any cat's or hydros comming from Aquacraft. Come to think of it all I see is a decent mini and what apears to be a flop of a gass boat.

"keep an eye on Aquacrat the have some new stuff coming in the next few months"

I was told this when I talked to one of there techs about the Grim racer props.

so they may have a hydro on the way.

thats interesting ReddyWatts the specs you posted about the ProBoat Miss Elam
dont match the specs on the owners manual they also call it a catamaran!

Also Taylor and I were talking about Aquacrafts "confirmed" hydro!!!!

That is weird that the manual says the Elam is a 26 inch catamaran. It does have their cat setup in the hydro.

I already have a Miss Bud with the Elam setup.

Only had it out twice. Still working out the bugs. I will try to get a video up soon. It should be a reliable hydro.

My 1/12 Miss Llumar conversion with a 9XL has been going strong for almost 3 years now and held up very well. Its been flipped, run onto rocks etc... and comes back for more.

I'll be looking at the Elam when it comes out and will probably add it to my collection.
