            As soon as I get some of that glue, I'm going to start a step by step build thread with pics.

            Not to mention my Hydrofoil project (Police), My Billings WSP10 project (Fire), and my "Special boat" project (Miss Bud replacement) !

            How long till we find out about the "SPECIAL BOAT"?:rolleyes:

              If you want max top speed then an octura x-632 seems to be the ticket and even better if de-tongued


              I run the X430
              The x632 seems to be the best choice!

              OSE sells the HW, the pic posted there is of my boat.

                  Well this sucks. One of the rear sponson skins was missing, so Steve sent me another one, but when I open the envelope this one is different(shorter and wider).

                  Diegoboy, which one of these resembles your sponsons?
                  The left one came with the kit, and the right one is the one that Steve sent me

                    Both the one on my working one and the kit are the "left" one.
                    I'm not sure, but I think the right one is the "pre" rough water mod version. Steve will make it right. Call him via the number on his website. Just keep in mind he's in Cali.

                            Wow, Sorry I missed that one. battery goes in the front of the main hull "tub" The reinforcement pieces go inside the main hull too...
                            Pics to follow

                            Keep in mind, this boat was in a serious accident with a mahogany runnabout. Steve looked at the pics of the damage and told me that she looks like she'll never run again. He asked me to send her back to him. He repaired her good as new, then returned her back to me at no charge. That's what I'm talking about. He's a great guy!

                              Absolutely! Just keep me posted.

                              Here is the pic. Remember she was in a severe wreck...
                              Those reinforcement pieces were put there by Steve to close the breach in the tub hull.



                              This is one of the accident pics


                              Notice that the rear Carbon Fiber sponson boom is snapped apart. Had to be a big hit to break CF.
