    Which Deep V

    I am looking at adding a Deep v to my boat collection and was wondering what the options were...I really like the look of the King of Shaves P1...but have found nothing else beside the Spartan ...and it looks to be plastic...Any ideas?


    Thanx in advance

          Stay away from the Spartan! They are plastic, and will smoke ESCs/motors at the drop of a hat! Seen it myself more than once.

            There's quite a few great mono hull choices out there, the spartan isnt one of them. Check out the electric mono hull from Rico Racing, Delta Force, Titan 29 and 33 inch by Aeromarine Laminates, Insane boats 34 inch, Lizard and Lizard extreme by MHZUSA, No Step by Hydro & Marine to name a few. These are all traditional mono hulls without steps. The King of Shaves mono that you mentioned is a stepped hull I believe. If you like stepped hulls then check out Hydro&Marine.de and MHZUSA.com

              For an 'almost ready to run' boat the Pursuit is hard to beat. They are also sold with a Leopard 4074 installed with a T180a.

              You could also "build your own" with a Delta Force Hull, 29, 33, or 35 possibly and throw a Leopard 40 size motor in it. You will find all kinds of nice speedmaster hardware here on OSE as well.

                          lonneyb. Not to rain on the parade. Number one I haved owned a Pursuit and it is a great boat and it turns on a dime. The only thing you should be aware of, and it is a minor thing in the big scheme of things, is that the finish on it is is kinda "dull" and the yellow color is not that great(opinion). This is all very subjective and it is still a very good boat for the money.

                          Just thought you should know that though.

                            Yip thats good info!!...I planned on getting the White one then Airbrushing my own Graphics over that then Clearing the whole thing.....Once i get this one i will be able to see how a Boat SHOULD be put together then i can go onto building my own ...but this boat seems to have the performance parts and adjustability i want and the looks..... so ill give a quick disassembly..... Airbrush her up ...and assemble again ...Easily done no?
