The same boat, different name thread

[fweasel]

Been meaning to start this thread for a while. I wanted to have a single location to cross reference the different names for identical/similar boats that go by different names from different manufacturers. For example: The Fightercat Daytona is a TFL Genesis and a Joysway Rocket is an Atomik Barbwire XL. Please add whatever hull pairs you know of and I'll update the first post with a master list.

Tenshock 95 - Fightercat Shocker
TFL Genesis 37" - Fightercat Daytona
TFL Apparition 32" - Fightercat Rivercat
TFL Zonda 41" - Fightercat Fantasm
TFL Mini Zonda 27" - Dragon Hobby Saga650 EP - Nitrocrx Eceed Racing 650 cat
Joysway Rocket - Atomik Barbwire XL
Joysway Alpha 1000 - Hobbyking Hydropro Inception
Joysway Bullet - Hobbyking Aquaholic & Hobbyking Scott Free
Joysway Mad Flow F1 tunnel - Hobbyking Marine Hydrotec F1 tunnel
Joysway US1 cat - Hobbyking Relentless cat
Pro Boat React 17 - UDI007 Voyager
Volantex Vector 70 - Helion Rivos BL

Anyone know what the sister hulls for an Apparition and Fantasm are?

I'm pretty sure Apparition= Head of the River cat.

My understanding is:

TFL Zonda=Fightercat Fantasm
Hobbyking Apparition=Fightercat Rivercat

Also I think the Mini Zonda, while very similar to the Exceed Flowmaster 650mm/Dragon Hobby Saga, is not the same hull. The trapezoidal shaped rudder standoff section on the transom is different for the two boats.

The Apparition does not have the detail at the rear of the hull like the Rivercat and Zonda do. Similar in just about every other respect, but not sure about the length or sponson shape.
While I've never seen one in person, the Fightercat Fantasm appears to be a 41" TFL Zonda and the Rivercat is a 32" I believe.

The rear end of my mini zonda looks pretty similar to the Exceed and Dragon hobby hulls, albeit carbon instead of fiberglass.
