Maybe he means can it be fixed or is it worth it.............

Strange....seems a burnt esc has caused the seam to split allowing the foam flotation to come out and a sponson tip to break and split too. Must have been one hell of an esc burn! Hope none of mine end up like that because of an esc.

Thats a Tenshock Warrior or Minicat Samurai.

I got one.

The top deck is VERY thin. Mine flexes under the boats own weight...

Looks like the minicat racing samurai to me. All that pressure has to go somewhere. Must of had one hell of a hatch tape job!

No question about it, I got one on my boat shelf.

I like the offset for the rudder.

I think the top deck is too thin, no fiber tear on the left the bow, neatly broken.

Yes, it is a Minicat Samurai, I have one too. Love it, , simple to run and runs great. To the OP, did you find this pic and is wondering if it is a good boat? We aren't sure of your intention. Anyway, the body shell is thin but of good quality and MinicatRacingUSA states in their original literature that to prevent distortion one should not leave batteries in it for too long if the boat is not run. I poured alot of epoxy into the front of the hull. Looking at the pic the motor mount is ripped too, must be an explosion, or the ownner had removed it after the fire. Anyway, I find if you take care of the boat like you would with a fine instrument you won't have any problem. One thing: this boat has silver colored hard ware, I thought most Minicat Samurais come with blue aluminum hardware, I won't know for sure because I got the last one of the two that was left.

[tlandauer]

I stand corrected, the motor mount is in place, it's so warped that I couldn't see! Just hate to see a boat in such sad shape!

[Basstronics]

I agree, the top deck is paper thin!

But it is however a nice boat. I finally got mine wet today and I love it as well. I need to work on my speed though, I would guess low 30's high 20's.
