That's a hard one. If there was some place close I could run gas it'd be a different choice. Electric wise twin 5692 RCBoatworks Top Gun, although the 40 Whip I have is getting more time now. A 20lb boat popping wheelies gets the blood pumping every time!
The Most "fun" boat you run??

I have to say that my Jersey Skiff is hands down the most "fun" boat I run. It's slower than molasses in January, goes down the straightaways like a square-wheeled Amish haywagon, & corners like King Henry VIII. But I love runing it, and the one race it was in (WWVIII) was pure excitement while Pat & I tried (somewhat unsucessfully) to keep them outside the turn buoys. I know we all want to gofaster, and trust me I have some fast boats, but the JS puts the biggest smile on my face.

My favorite fun boat is a Dark Horse shovel hydro I bought for my younger son. Nice simple SV motor and esc. Fast enough to be fun, kind of slides just a little around the corners and seems to run forever. And has been very dependable so far. Had so much fun with it I picked up 2 more for my older son and myself. Can't help it but it just makes me smile running it or even just watching my son run it.

SuperVee27R. today Mine flew threw the air for about 20 feet at about 5 feet high and landed right side up and took off like nothing happened. Reall crowd pleaser. I love to here the ooh's and aah's from the crowd. a really fast boat just doesn't get the crowd's attention.Comment

My DF29 knock off. Fast, handles good, cheap to build and takes a a$$ kicking and keeps going and going.

Some good answers here guys! Seems to be a common theme that it's the smaller more basic models which get everyone's vote and makes me realise that it's not always bigger/faster = betterComment
