Thanks Tony,

That is a lot of motor in a little boat.

Tyler, am I misunderstanding your question ? His Whip is the big one, just like yours. starts with a pull-cord. Edit :[ I didn't realize that there's a Sport 40 AND a Sport 40 Hydro - just looked at the Blazer site - Ron's is a Sport 40 hydro ]

Tony,

I think you still have them mixed up. A "sport 40" is about 36" in length and is normally powered by a "40" size nitro motor or equivelent FE set-up. The "gas" whiplash is about 44". That is probably the one you are thinking of. There is also a sport 20 which Brian makes.

I have two Gas whiplashes which you have seen and a nitro whip sport 40 too, but I don' think you have seen that one.

I was only curious because several people have talked about shoehorning a gas motor into a sport 40 size boat (think of putting Mark Ferrara's T mono power in a 36" mono) which might be a rocket or a diaster.
