      I wouldn't mine doing a custom build on one of these hulls. I think I could make one look top notch, be hella strong and haul ass.

        48" of hull, and you found those seriously MINOR issues? I'd say that's pretty awesome!

        The stress cracks around the hatch are likely do to someone picking the hull up by one hand by wrapping around that lip. Same thing happened to my Voracity when I lifted it that way.

        As for the minor loose glass ends... If those are considered "issues"... then you are seriously LOOKING for something to complain about, in my opinion, because on a Polyester glass hull that isn't bagged, that's going to happen.

          Pretty much every cat I've had my hands one has those hanging strands of fiberglass in some place or another. Nothing a pair of little scissors can't fix. No offense but I think your just being a tad too picky :)

              I wouldn't consider those "issues" definitely being a little picky...these boats are mass produced you can't expect it to be flawless

                  This is a good point and true.

                    Did you mean to say "would"?

                      I dont think so lol..I meant like I personally wouldnt consider the things he was concerned about actual "issues" with the boat, just small imperfections I guess. Like doby stated, champagne taste on a beer budget lol

                        I guess I could be a bit particular but the others I've seen are flawless & I guess I just expected more. I'm reaching out to a dealer buddy of mine east coast to see what he's got to say & feels about his in Stock models vs mine!

                            for the amount of money we fork out for these products,i think he has a right to be picky IMO.

                              True but it is a rtr boat Im sure imperfections are inevitable. If you wanted a custom made perfect boat you'd probably pay double what you'll pay for something rtr

                                for what i'd pay for the boat up here (Canadian funds),i'd expect the QC to be a tad better when the boat is shipped from the factory.i know RTR's are not perfect,but i would expect better.
