            methinks it would really move if a person were to install a couple of feigao 380 bl motors in it .

                  Sounds like it is working out for you. Any chance for some pics or vids? I'm a fan of making otherwise cheap boats going faster too.

                      if you buy one, juice it to the max. then build it to what the hull can handle and let me know what you did and how well it performs.

                        I get a mess of coupons from Harbor Freight and you can even use the 20 percent coupon online.
