HPR06 115... built thread

[johnf]

I sent Hanspeter an email and asked if he would please look into the possibilites of Paypal for us or some other means of payment.

That would be awesome. The wiring fees for my hull/hw were around 40 or 50 a couple months back.

Wired the $$$ today for my hydraulic fakes and a set of extra stub shafts in case I ever spit one out the back. Wow did International wire transfers from my bank go up. In '06 when I got my CT04 hull it cost 25 bux to wire to Switzerland. That was for almost 2K of stuff. Today, 200 bux of stuff cost 55 dollars to wire it. Holy hell! I sent Hanspeter an email and asked if he would please look into the possibilites of Paypal for us or some other means of payment.

I got the 115 and sometimes wish I went with the 135. I'm sure that will change when I'm ready to buy batts for this project. Lol

... and motors and controllers... Im really happy with the 115 size. Not too big, not too small. Youll love it no doubt about it.

I am sure i will like either one! I see there is a guy in the swap shop selling a MHZ 45" Mystic w/all hardware.. What do you guys think about the MHZ products vs. the HPR 115??

[johnf]

I haven't seen any MHz stuff in person. My hpr is carbon Kevlar, and is extremely solid and well built. Ive heard you can't go wrong with MHz either. From the close ups I've seen, the hpr finish may be a little better if you aren't gonna paint. The line where the hull joins seems a bit rough on the mhzs I've seen pics of.

Originally I wanted the MHz, but trying to deal with mhzusa discouraged me. I'd probably be happy with either.

Hope that helps.

I think they are both great. The only thing I couldnt deal w/ anymore w/ MHZ was thier USA distributor. Id by one from an individual any day, as long as I didnt have to deal with MHZ. Ive only seen one MHZ cat in person, the Ikslar cat, and it was the bottom end model, no carbon etc and it was nice. The C/K Mystic looks like a very well built boat. I really like the lines on it as well. Ive never heard any complaints on the hardware. The only thing personally that I do not care for is the Hydraulic steering fakes are not functional. You need a seperate control rod to steer. The HPR Hydraulic rams carry the cables for a pull/ pull system. Trick scale looking functional parts.

I agree, Ive even heard from several others that the finish isnt as nice on a MHZ. Ive also heard they are hit and miss. One will be finished out really nice and shiney, the next dull and rough around the edges.

love your boat! where are you in florida? i was thinking my next boat was going to be the ikslar/zero defect cat with twins but that will be an over summer build. that or an hpr. boat is gorgeous btw.

[txboatpilot]

Yea, just looking at pictures,, the HPR's look a little cleaner,, I mean the line where the hull comes together. I did'nt know the MHZ hydr. were non-functional,,, that is kinda lame..Being they are just as expensive..

I too like the lines of the MHZ mystic 45".. But the one in the swap shop is yellow,, I prefer white.. I believe the lines are very similar to Hanspeters new HPR115 mystic?

Cant wait to get my hands on 1 of these babies!!

Yeah, if your gunna go thru the trouble of manufacturing hydraulic rams, why not make them functional. I thought it was lame too.
