What a limited post.

Looks nice, but... Its small and theres not much room inside.

What are your intentions?

Honestly if your going to throw down $190 on that, you could throw it down on a 32" Pursuit and have a better boat (in my opinion) with room to upgrade. You will have the added cost of an ESC off the bat, but its a 32" boat.

My first "fast electric" was a 25" Prince/Rocket. Its a knock off boat. At 25" it was small but big enough to go somewhat fast (for a newb).

looks cool to me. Stepped hull, and a flood chamber.

Guess it would just be adding to the fleet.... I'm guessing the flood chamber and battery tray is to offset prop torque? video on it looks fast...but at the end of the day...they are out of stock anyway....

That looks like the dragon hobby boat called shark. I've never owned a dragon boat but I have owned venom boats. While they look nice the glass is paper thin. You have to take into account the cornering of a narrow hull too. As said the pursuit is a very good choice with lots if room to upgrade.

Not quite right Wade.
The flood chamber is to self right the boat after a flip. The offset battery puts the weight on the same side to assist the flood chamber in the process. You may find that there are some weights with the boat that can be added if it still won't flip back over. But yes, as a by-product of this setup the weight of the battery does offset prop torque.

That is pretty ineresting . The motor looks to be down it the step and a straight shaft. Stinger is up a bit high but looks good in the pictures. Nice looking boat,decent price. Let us know if you buy it and how it runs for you.

Hi Wade,

Hey take a chance it could be a fun boat. One of my most fun boats was 1972 Hughey .40 hydro kept it for years. Sold it and it was gone for 25 years I found it again in 2006. I fixed what the others changed and my Grandson learned how to drive a RC boat. Life is short take a chance you might just like it.

If you are not the lead dog the view never changes!

Best of luck.
