You aren't going to be able to see much. The differences aren't quite that visible. One is... the rear ride pads don't have 90-degree outer edges any longer.... they are blended at a 45 up into the sponsons. Loosens the hull up and keeps it from tripping under heavy cornering.

I'm supposed to be getting a hull and hardware from Pro Boat shipped out next week. Will prep this one for P-LTD Cat racing here locally.

Hey Darin: Do you know if there will be a Miss Geico 29" V3?

It would seem crazy for ProBoat to stop making and selling one of the most popular RTR FE boats in the world don't you think?

[montymike]

Hay fusion are looking for a mg? Don't have hobby shops that still have um.

[fusion_m8]

I had a MGv2, sold it. Got a Lucas Oil atm. Looking to get my hands on the BJ29v3, but I much prefer the MG29v3 if they release it because I love that Neon Yellow colour.

[montymike]

I have a mystic29 and a mg29v1 hull with all bj hardware, 120ahobbywing v3 with extra caps. She
Has a hugley flex shaft ,floating bushing and a 1950kv 3660 tp power motor and up graded water hoses this
Boat has not seen water yet it's still too cold in Michigan to run have to wait for
Spring.

Well went to hobby store to check out blackjack 29. Nice boat
The ride pad in the back of boat is flater then the mystic or the mg. Like my mean machine but not as square off on the end. Giving it better stability in the corners. The hatch is Square for better taping. With lock in back
The back and 2 peg in the front to hold it in. magnets and inner liner Gone. The graphics on the hull with the red
Paint and graphics flawless. Inside looks more modular and better laid out. No more wood! Only draw back,
This boat weight is more. So thsts why it says 45+ m.p.h. conclusion I buy it. Glad i waited for the v3. Hsts off
Darin glad they listen to you!!!

Does flatter ride pads mean more bouncing? How are the edges on the ride pad like? Even and sharp? I was going to buy one from the ProBoat website, but the shipping quoted me US$238 to Australia!!! DAYLIGHT ROBBERY!!! So I'd just have to wait till some ebay seller offers the BJv3 at more earthly prices.

Flatter ride pads would mean less bouncing.

Wow!! This hull does look good, from the little that they show i like the interior.
Seems to have taken a lot of input from a real boat guy---and we all know who that is!

[ray schrauwen]

When someone gets one can they please post interior pics since HH & PB don't show too much of the inside... that I've seen so far...

Thx!
