      I should be getting mine in a week. Looks like it should be a nice boat.

          Waiting for the local shop to get some in. Hopefully not as finicky as the BJ 42.

                    I've had this boat for about a week now and in both passes I've made, the hull gets flooded with water. Has anyone had this issue? I'm guessing it's not sealed correctly around the copper tube that comes through the hull for the water pickup. All the cooling hoses are connected and no water comes in when the boat is stationary on the water. I added silicone around the tube to see if that eliminates the flooding.

                      I saw a video from "Mild to Wild RC" who must have been one of the early reviewers. He had a leak on his Impulse 32 as well. I didn't pay close attention since I don't have the boat, but I'm pretty sure he said it appeared to come at the corner between the hull bottom and the transom. Something about the plastic plate they put in to mount all the hardware must have a leak. Check it out. Just search Mild to wild rc "Proboat impulse 32 water leak issue fix"

                        Some water in mine after one run but not flooded. I wasn’t to worried but maybe i should inspect it for leaks

                          After less than a minute it'll have water sloshing inside. It's weird because if it had a leak somewhere in the transom, you'd think it would fill the boat up even if it's stationary?
