    GS, I simply went to a full size boat accessory site and downloaded and photoshopped pics of REAL gauges, stereos, speakers, gloveboxes etc...........then printed them out and used a waterproof clear tape over them to apply them!

    The seats are made out of vinyl i had layin around..........cut 'em to fit and glued them on.

    Here are some of the pics i used for the dash and speakers.

                      Sharpend the prop after hitting the turtle and ran her again today.

                      Lemme tell you ..............these are a Bich to set up!! If anyone has setup a brushless villain they will know..........i had to move the trim tabs outward a bit and give the strut some positive..............

                      I think its 99% there, Movin out if i do say so myself!

                            Old thread I know. The boat and your work on it is really top notch. With all due respect, I love the Villain for what it is, a dual steerable out drive boat. Slow? Yes. But super maneuverable and fun. As with my Summit, I find it great fun to go slow. Lol

                              Thanks xland, you realize this one is a modified single drive brushless right? I have a couple bone stockers too. The poor little Villain IV in stock trim can barely get out of its own way!!

                                Mine has dual 19t motors and I only run on one 3s lipo. Goes pretty good. Not a FE but very fun.
