    Your 1st boat from HOR is best in your list INHO.

      I agree with Vasey. I have a shockwave 26- to many issues- Stay away from this boat. The Hor is one of the most stable boats you will ever own. I know because I own one modified.

        Yes that is a really nice boat the HOR is a copy of the Delta Force 26 and the copies run way better than those other 2 boats could ever dream of. You might upgrade to a 540 size motor and bigger esc later down the road but at least that hull can handle pretty much anything you can throw at it power wise.

              I have the same hull with a different hardware setup and soon a larger motor.

              Its the boat to get if you are new. Will require tweaking and some work- but superior to many others (I have read).

                I'd take the DF26 copy over 3 SV27R's unless I was just going to sell them.

                    Take the componets (sv27r)and put them in the HOR 26 and a 42x55 balanced/sharp prop and you have a 40+mph that runs on rails.(Email kintecracing he will set you up and plenty of good advise. Should you want the sv27r he can also do all the hop-ups to make that boat rock solid. HOR boat turns on a dime at full speed. The sv27r can't compare. If you are new to boating and driving, start with the HOR and then get yourself the sv27r much more challenging to drive. If like the hobby of boating, you will have more than one boat anyway. I know, because I just ordered another boat and waiting for the ul-1 to become available. Total 3 boats. Can't have to many boats. Fun, fun,fun!!!!!
