    getting back into water sports

    getting back into water sports and ran across this unit thinking it would work good on a bud light tunnel
    whatdoya think??? tfl 542b20

    shafts break easy??
    what prop to run??
    and howbout a turn fin on the bud light?>
    and any other things am not aware of......" had a bud light few yrs ago and other type lectric boats but didnt really get into it having a simple a brushed 500, but now the games changed!

    below is a pic of a ABS boat I had back in 2000 and never found another one like it again and was obviously an inboard, some are close but not the same animal.......

    sure. nobody really knows what you are talking about in terms of a "bud light". the livery on some random hull is pretty meaningless to identify a hull.

    A good way to go on a tunnel hull is to build one out of wood like the zippkits G30.

    Welcome to Zippkits! G30 Tunnel Hull Kit [6516] - This is the new G30 Outboard Tunnel hull from Rod Geraghty and the JAE gang.Designed for Nitro or Electric power, this new kit features foam core sponsons and quick assembly.The G30 has been developed to a high level with stock 3.5 nitro and P limited electric power.Use any 3.5 (.21)

        If you are going to build a G30, take a look at the larger version of the outboard. This one is on a Dumas 24" boat.
