    Will we ever see this as an RC model?

    Looking for air scoops for my newest project, I stumbled on THIS boat. I thought it was cool and wanted to share. I now wonder if it will ever be adapted to an RC hull?
    In order to install batteies and such, the cockpit couldn't be clear.

      The write up is good(offsite)..
      Diesel electric boats.. sounds like a promotion for yourself, OP !

      Place cells in the sponsons and leave the cockpit as is..
      Would make an interesting build.

      Waiting to see how yours finishes out, diesel.

                    it actually looks like a concept boat that could actually work AND be built !
                    well, might be slightly hard to turn it tho

                        and the back(where the car is) is where you slide in the battery. It would be nice to see some "fresh" designs in the rc boat world in terms of form. After seeing 1000 pictures of a Delta Force hull(remain calm, fill in whatever boat name you want here), it gets a little "stale". I still want a boat that performs, but it is nice to see some different designs...

                            Amen! Used to be Titan, El Lobo, No Step 2. The trouble is that creative dosen't always work. That's why I like all these cats that have been coming around of late.

                            That cat with the open glass cockpit is sweet. Anybody know if that will work with only a partial air trap?
