[Tony]

I saw this auction on evilBay,and just curious if converted it to electric... What kind of brushless motor(s),esc, and how many Lipos one would needs to power this hull?

Dual LMT 3080's or the big Neu's and 10-12S LiPos,,,,lots of them.

Figure $6-$7K

[Jesse J]

how about three 12S monsters?

[Ub Hauled]

Dual 2230/1Y on 10s and lots of mAh to back it up...
dual Lehner 40/300

that is a pretty penny (one of the shine ones),
2230/1Y = $700 (x2)
40/300 = $940 (x2)
10s3P = $571 (x6) 25C PolyRc
Subtotal = $6706 w/o hull
Now add taxes/shipping and hardware...

James Watson on RRR spent $14,000+ on his 92 inch HPR.........................

They are big and with a huge wow factor until the first time to the pond , anything larger the 5 feet is a huge PITA to maneuver through the house and transport back and forth

Well said Peter

Yes, they are pretty inconvenient to move around, there aren't many ponds that one can use it,
it's not very cheap on top of all that, if you need a spare set of batteries and charging times are not for the inpatient man... BUT, that was not your question...

There is one answer and about right. Big boats are cool but to run with electrical power very expensive

What is this fascination for people with no FE experience to run huge boats??

Doug its always nice to dream.

[Jeff Wohlt]

Dang...with my little car I would have to build a trailer to tow a boat that big!!

[Flying Scotsman]

No kidding, I hope my dreams come true an HPR monster

One could justify the cost by doubling it as a bath tub for the kids
LOL

[Jeff Wohlt]

No...I'm thinking I could charge the kids for rides in our area. Extra $10 to experience a blow over and $5 for a barrelroll.
