                Looks like a version of the 'Sober' from The Build R/C.
                Yours doesn't have the two hatches in the sponsons for the twin motors. Or does it look like they've been patched?

                See the danger. THEN DO IT ANYWAY!!!

                  I think that is it also.

                      I will have to agree with y'all. Just checked out the link and looks just like it. Now the question is how would I go about mounting the motor mount to the kevlar and the shaft tube for the flex shaft?

                        What would this boat be classified as?
