Which hull for P-hydro?

[MarkF]

You got the whip up there but not the Insane FE 30. I vote other as well.

WHY do people keep suggesting P-SPORT Hydros??? They don't stand a chance against a real P-Hydro...

[Diegoboy]

...because they look cool??

[Doug Smock]

Something that can run well with big gassers.

IMO You're going to need a bigger boat than any of them listed to run with gas guys sucessfully.

I've got a 1/8 hydro in the works from Mike L

No more Novice for me. I will run in P next year

The only classes in the district right now is P-spec Hydro, P-spec tunnel and P-mono.

If Don, gets a open hydro class in D12 for next year, your going to be racing agains 80+ mph nitro riggers. IMO-Not a good place for a newbie.

If your talking club racing, then I guess that would be cool.

[Doug Smock]

I think Mike means "Limited". Specs are those things that get on your glasses.

[MarkF]

Darin, I know they can't compete. Just woundering why the BBY and Whip were added to the mix. This toll thread is dumb because evrybody is just going to claim whatever they own is the best. As far as I'm concerned there are only 2 boats out there for P spec and thats the Raptor and JAE and either one can win so whats the point. There aren't any "true" P hydro riggers comercially available yet.

What is in the list is simple.
IT'S WHAT I HAVE AVAILABLE TO ME...

That's not true... the JAE can be built and purchased in a true P-Hydro size... If fact, I'd argue that the existing JAE FE hull is plenty big for the task. Could also be scaled up a tad, if you must use up all of the allowed 34".

AND, for the record, I don't own a JAE. Just happen to have seen one in this size, and raced against several setup for P-Limited, and watched them race here locally in A-Hydro trim. LOTS of room in there...

You can also get an Eagle SGX in an appropriate size for P-Hydro, either in the 30" model, or by having Andy build the 34" version for you. (http://www.cmdracing.com/updated/ima...price_list.pdf)

I DO own an FE30, and a Raptor P-Limited, and have experience with the Phil Thomas and Whiplash P-Sport Hydro sized boats...

I'm only suggesting the JAE because it's the easiest to make happen, and is a good value for the performance it delivers.

If you build the jae .21 g2 it has a wider tub and more room for batteries. Thats how i built mine and its perfect.. Just throw in one of the small 1515 1y's and its good for p

[Diegoboy]

I have the 21 g2 plans printed so I can make one in CF.
I thought the 21 G2 tub was smaller. Thanks for the heads up.

[6S HYDRO]

No the fe is much narrower

If you're going to go play with the gassers and big nitro boats, build a JAE 90 and put one of the big leopard motors in it on 8-10S. You'll need the weight and footprint when the water gets nasty.

A 1515 Neu will fit in a Raptor, but you can only get 4S1P in it (that's what I set the 2-lap record with). I have some ideas for a true P boat, but there aren't enough people running them to make it worth building at this point.

found a build thread on it http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...ad.php?t=12111
its a neat looking rigger I think we would need to order a second set of sponsons maybe just stick with our back up hull idea but that's 4 boats and I don't know what these hulls cost. Keep in mind all the other boats cost us is the price of wood as we have the plans. That being said it looks like a very nice rigger with enough room in the transom area :)
