    If you do, let me know, I've been thinking of an R-42 for a while but the hatch has put me off so far.

        I've got a pair of 1717's and Ice 2 200's for it.
        I started looking at MHZ and HPR but the handling is poor.I have an overpowered Geico that is a hoot to drive and would like to make something like that just bigger.Any other hull suggestions?
        I think the R42 is a great hull! I also like the F41 Stryker and I like the new USA made 55"mystic for the twins . I don't know if the r42 or the f41 will work fit twins but then again I don't know ANYTHING about fe !!!! So you guys HAVE to have a hull that you can make water proof?? I don't know how you guys keep the water out and with the blow overs coming from fast cats it seems almost impossible but I guess not lol. Why don't you guys run a water proof radio box for your servos and rx ec ? Etc ? Are the electric motors water proof ? Shows how much I know about fe lol. It would seem that a radio box like we run in gas would be a no brainer for these high $ electrical parts you guys run but I'm guessing you tape down the hatch and seal off everything everywere???? As far as a very nice cat hull I have many many suggestions but again I don't know what the needs of a fe hull is . You guys have some really nice fast boat and I'm hoping I can learn more but it seems to me that gas is where I need to stay until I learn more . I have the gas cat thing figured out but I'm always interested in Rc boats that go fast in a straight line lolo.

          SAW, for me,liquid tape and Conformal Coating are my best friends.I also use household door seal and hatch locks to seal my hatches.Oh,and tape for high speed runs.
