    I'll be damned. I never thought I'd see the day. Can it be true? A 3 layered, properly laid up, non cheaply done hull off the shelf? 48 inches long & able to blast though a stiff breeze and the water ripples associated with that? Proboat is getting seriously real with the Voracity and now this boat. Impressive........ *very* impressive. If I'd have known this was coming there's no way I'd be stuffing around with a 1/2 rebuilt Zonda Hull right now. Been *waiting* and *hoping* for exactly a boat like this.

    Don't tell me next up is a 40in+ hydro hull? I'd fall over if that was the case!!!

      I had heard rumors . . . very excited they were true!!!!
      I'm dying to stuff 2 motors in one of these hulls and start chasing 100mph!
      Heck I would happily run it "stockish" for awhile I believe! Lol

            Flying Scotsman,

            I sent Darin a bare white hull with loose parts. It's actually the very first sample we had made.

            I'll post pictures of the production sample I have in my car once I get unloaded; I'm beat from spending the day at the lake in 100* weather. I'll get pictures and a video tutorial on battery configurations as soon as possible.

              Hope these pictures help those wanting to see a bit more detail of the inside and the business end. Don't mind the criss cross wires. Production ESCs come pr programmed for CCW rotation which allows for the wires to cleanly connect to each corresponding port in the ESC.

                Thanks Rafael...How much adjustment is there for prop angle and height position.

                          ESC is holding up fine. The boat, stock, only needs 120-130 amps, continuous.
