    Can anuone ID this boat

    I have a guy wanting to trade this boat for a Heli I have. Can anyone ID it?
    If I go by the pic of it against the door the door nob should be about 41 inches from the floor so I would think the boat is about 53 inches long and it has a G26cc motor he says.

      You may want to ask over at Jim's Boat Dock. http://www.jrcbd.com/index.php

      What is your Heli worth?

          It's a Trex 600NSP with spares. It's sells for $750 to $900(used). I'm getting this boat and $475 for it. What is the boat worth? It is almost new. 2 or 3 runs on the boat.

              its worth more than a yard just cause its got a zenoah 26 in it those are good gass motors not better than am mathe but good motor is worth over 200 about 260 to be exaxct
              add a 100 for the hull which is cheap that puts you close to over 300 plus 475.$775 you may also be able to sell that gas motor on modelpowerboat.com.

                Wow I thought it would be worth more than that. He told me he paid $850 for it.

                  What are you looking for in this boat?
                  It looks to be a stock engine with that carb. That is a lot of boat for a stock? engine.
                  I can't imagine that silicone coupling lasting much longer than a fart in a wind storm. lol Is he injecting water in the header to keep the silicone from frying? Looked again he sure is. That definately needs to go. You'll want to replace the header and pipe.
                  Have you seen her run?
                  A stock Zen is approx $210.00 http://www.gizmomotors.com/ and the hull is worth something so it could be a good trade depending on your expectations. Hopefully the guys at Jim's will be more help.

                    I was going to repair what needs to be repaired and run it. I have a elect hydro I just got and I love it.
                    I have not heard it run but he has good feedback(rccanada) . He is 425 miles away from where I am.

                      Go for it!! I have gas cat and mono and run the bottoms off of them. Boats is boats!!!

                      Ask the pros on Jims what the best pipe set up is for a stocker. 2" band I think. You'll be suprised how much the rpms come up when you get the water out of the header. It's ok to inject water ( to knock down some of the noise) but you do it after the pipe.

                      Good luck, let us know how you make out.

                            SHHHH .....DON"T TELL HER I SAID THAT...Wink

                              By the way. When you post video of your gasser be sure to warn the guys to turn the sound off. Some of them are very sensitive.
                              Especially the Canadians.
