    If I went rtr...what would I go for

    Hey Guys,

    Thanks for the info on hulls if I were to go a build your own. I was wondering what you guys would recommend if I went the rtr route? I've got a few ideas (AC motley crew, PB blackjack 29, Exceed snap deep v, arpro 700ep, PB impulse 31"). Thanks again.

    Cheers,

    Mike

      I'm really liking the look of the blackjack 29.

        Stay away from the blackjack. If u want a cat, the mystic 29 is way better. Or get the impulse, it's a solid reliable boat

          The Exceed Snap & Arpro are not in the league of the Aquacraft & Proboat boats.

            The Blackjack 29 is the same hull as the Mystic & Geico & not to be confused with the old Blackjack. Totally diff boat.

              True. It has different electronics to the mystic and miss geico though.

                I feel like the new blackjack 29 won't be released for a bit just checked the proboat site and mid august they should be coming in. The miss geico is cool but amain hobbies has one for $320 not bad plus it has a higher kv motor than the geico.

                  I vote Motley Crew, love mine. My first boat. I found out though that "RTR" is just a fantasy. You will need to do prep work, mods, and very possibly rigging and repairing before being "ready to run"

                    The electronics in the Blackjack 29 are uprated over the Mystic & Geico, It uses an uprated 80amp esc which is 6s compatible & 50mph. Darin Jordan has been on talking about this boat recently.
