Looking for Help picking Electric Boat

I perceived it that Billy had moved on as well......................

That Velocity Mono is funny! It's like the little guy gets excited about the waves and trips over his feet.
Thanks for sharing!

No problem. Its the smallest boat I have, but provides a ton of fun. Its the only boat I own thats 100% stock, not even a prop swap
. Just a blast to have fun with. Runs a single 3s battery and I always have a cig lighter charger in my car for my planes so its nice to have the little boat around and I don't need to lug my rescue boat with me. Keep the little guy in the car, takes up very little room!

Since we're all throwing out our honest input here....................i have never seen an SV27 corner well at all..................any slight ripple and hop hop hop..................may be something about the design, but they go great straight.

I got mine to run better. Out of the box it really had that hop in the turns instead of staying "planted" in the turns. With a file I rounded the lower leading edge of the rudder and rounded the very bottome of the rudder to get rid of the wedge. I also "tucked in" the rudder and those changes helped a lot! After a lot of work my SV ran very well (for a sv). All that with UL1 power and a grim 42x55 and was a decent running boat.

I too enjoy this forum, but not when I'm the victim of un-called for and bogus attacks.

Billy, not going to get into anything, but just ask your self why this always seems to be happening....

Jim,
I have much better things to do with my time.

Hey guys - Lets get back to BOATING!

[Kent55]

Kent,
What happened to the TH Power Vee you had??

It was under warranty - it kept loosing motor power (no steering) while running. I sent it back twice, then returned it.

2 YEARS later - thought I would jump back in & get something better then the $80 house brand ship.

"And now I'm the one creating a stink over nothing?? Excuse me Douggie, I DO NOT THINK SO!! Where I come from that is called a bullying. I think you should be turning you attention towards Jim Marcum, NOT me!! All I did was defend myself from a bogus and UNCALLED FOR attack."

Billy, In my area that is called the truth....you are new on this forum and there a lot of lads on this site that have great knowledge.

Add pool noodles inside as well. Sinking a boat can really ruin your day.

Darin,

I'm packing it with pool noodles for him right now. Also glueing some floatation to the hatch. I've lost a few with no flotation

Yeah guys. My mother always told me "If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all." It's not nice to hijack someone else's thread. Now lets all have fun it's boating season, let's go terrorize the turtles! JK

[JIM MARCUM]

GREAT!!! JIM

Hey everyone - Thank you for all the time you gave me with tips and suggestions. I took everything into account.
I've decided to get this Aqua Craft SuperVee27-R from mtbenjamin77. If it wasn't for the low price on this, I was probably going more for the
Pro Boat Impulse 26 or the Aqua Craft Wildcat EP. That Velocity Mono is close behind too! The Pro Boat FASTech isn't on Pro Boat's
website that I could find without using Google. That is Sweet too!
Don't you worry, I'll be back with more questions and photos of this Yellow-V jumping some waves! Hopefully some video too!
I'm glad I stumbled across this site the other day.

[Alexgar]

check out that price though

DUDE! $262 for a "spare" boat ??? I'd go to Wal-Mart for cheap insurance!

Wtf are you babbling about?!
I think this thread has officially peaked.
