Miss Geico 17 "brushed to INSANE 50MPH BRUSHLESS BOAT"

[Zackthrills]

Alright guys I know this has not been done yet but I am the first to push this little boat too the brink. I see all of people asking how to make this boat faster week I have done it and with great success. I started this for fun for my boys and has turned into a project. I first used a mini mono brushless motor and a30amp esc with a high performance Lipo 1350 battery. The collet has to be drilled out to match the drive shaft side, then you mount the battery in the bow of the boat. I then used a aquacraft metal prop of larger size and installed mini mono by "aquacraft" turn fins. More this boat hulls a$$ I will post a video today of it in action. Stay tuned for more. zack tampa, fl

I swear it's so fast it's crazy. And the video on my page is of it not running right so slower then it has been but will post it going to try to hit 60mph. For wheel stuck weights to balance it out and make it ride right

I have a 29 MG that is hard to keep in the water. I want to see a small one doing those speeds

It will be fun to see it running up to potential. A tip for the videographer - when filming a boat always hold the phone horizontally, not vertically as in the videos. It makes it easier to follow the boat - and just looks better.

alright this is what I had to do. Over the weekend I was having a hard time getting it to run to its potential. So I went ahead and pulled everything out of the boat and I use spray foam in spray foam the whole inside of the hull.isin reinstall all the electronics and bounce the boat with lead weights to make it heavier in the water on the back of the boat. Will be running it Tuesday morning on the lake with full video for everyone to see my goal is to hit 60 miles per hour.

also just a quick note the boat does have turn fins and adjustable trim tabs. I had to make a metal bracket to hold the motor in place as it vibrated loose with the factory bracket which is made out of plastic. I just ordered a leopard motor for the boat and plan to have it in before Tuesday's Run.

Yes, we want to see some pics. Where in Tampa do you boat? I'm in Riverview. I found this video of a guy running a Vilineon 380 motor on his.
