        Paint ended up turning out good and before I ship this boat out my paint guy wants to do a complete buffing job ! And turns out he isn't going to charge me anything, I think he feels guilty for assuming us FE modelers aren't picky

            This how fare 3 ft of water line will get you on this boat ! I use aluminum tubing in large boats , it helps keep the flow rate up when you are plumbing large spaces and it is lighter ! I need to order another 6 feet of cooling line , hope that will be enouph to finish this one and my rico...ha ha

                    No video, sorry. And even if I had it, a video probably would not be very impressive. That was at least a decade ago with NiCd cells, speeds would probably have been in the 40s. But the roost!

                        It was not my boat, so no. I have no idea where it is today.

                              I think that was Steve Vasjeckis's boat from a Michigan race about 10 years ago. He is still on line maybe he will se this post. If i remember Chris Fine made it for him. The Controllers were the schulze 105's.

                              Tested it but never raced it. He had to leave early his dad got sick.

                              I could be wrong though.
