HPR Hulls/ Purchase/Specs?

[britscoot]

Guys,i was joking!

I have a few "toy" boats myself but nothing as nice as the HPR's.
Hopefully i will own one.
The German guys always have the nice ones.Why is that?

[Gerwin Brommer]

Simple answer .
Why not ?
Germany has more people than Holland
America has more people than Germany.
So there will be more rc-boats in America , than there are in Germany.
The fact that the Germans build more scale boats and put more time in the looks of it , must be in their characters.
If they do it, they wanna do it right. And perhaps they "feel the need " to "do it better".
And they have easy acces to the more scale-looking boats and hardware.
The American boats "in general" are more "beefy"/bulky/edgy.
You guys are used to have rails in a hull, and make huge alumimium motormounts.
Which is fine.

Gerwin you submitted this lambo/model boat pic in another thread....

MONEY also has a SMALL part to do with it!! LOL.....

madly disposable money!!!

but all the same you guys do know what you are doing....

My girl is a 5'11" blonde and all german (w/blonde hair/blue eyes)..... she always tells me she is the "supreme" race... and since she lets me play with model boats without too much grief, and is good to me in all the right ways.... I will go along with that.... lol....

[Gerwin Brommer]

The Lambo-guy is from France
Of course it has to do with money...
But, the more people in a country, the larger is the amount of rich people.
( in Western Europe )
