      Not if you had a cooler full of frosties. Just keep an eye on motor/esc temp. batts should love it.

            yeah its always like 75 here but in lake havasu in arizona its like 115 and the waters like 65. my dad said it would be fine. he i pretty smart about boats cause we also have a deep vee in real life and they are pretty similar. he might try to make some custom trim tabs for the funtech.

                          I think you are describing the weakness of the stock hardware. Did you look at my Fastech mods thread? I replaced the stock strut and all those silly linkages with a more traditional strut where you can remove the drive line very easily. I would recommend replacing your hardware with a bearingized strut and .150 cable drive with 3/16" stub. this will solve the majority of your problems you are observing. see rcraceboat.com and Jeff Wohlt has what you need.

                              probably normal. I know Dad's boat has some vibration.
