    Hornet Tunnel from hobbyking?

    So I've been doing some searching and I have found little review/info on the HK Tunnel the 29inch hornet. Is it any good? I'm looking to add a couple boats to my fleet and I want a tunnel and a hydro. Problem is I live on a decent size lake so its great for monos and cats.. not so much hydros and tunnels that run better on glass.... So if I pick up a tunnel I want it to be cheap if the thing goes down in the lake. I mean it looks good... have to scrap the graphics... ESC looks suspect, but other than that is it solid? Any info would be great.

          I bought one on a whim...............its pretty much junk, its really good at collecting dust now. The plastic outboard is split down the middle and bolts together with minimal precision. The hull is fiberglass but wafer thin.....................its a high grade "toy".

              Eh so maybe not what I'm looking for... I still would like a dependable boat but not something that looks like crap... I was hoping I could just salvage the hull, parts, engine and get away with just upgrading the ESC. Oh well looks like I'll just get a stilleto...

              Love this quote though...
