Great video Tony and a very nice running boat. By far the DF is my favorite boat to run. Nice and stable even at high speed and they turn like their on rails. Great job.

The boat is actually a DF clone I bought used a few years ago. I gutted it, moved the motor to the back & the batt's on the centerline to minimize chine-wobble. I orginally ran a 1515 1Y with a M445 but needed the motor for another project so I installed a 1521 1.5D I bought from Jan. Roughly the same top end with a 447/3but way more speed in the turns. The boat turns really wet & the 1521 1.5D with the 3-blade carves turns without slowing down as much as with the 1515 1Y. Big Speedmaster tabs [SPD 200's] set at O deg to prevent blowovers. Speedmaster .21 nitro rudder cut down about 5/8" or so. .187 flex. Made a rudder mount from heavy duty aluminum to reduce flex; the stock Speedmaster bracket would bend from cornering forces ! OSE turn fins. Hydra 240 with Etti caps, CC BEC, Elite 35C 4S 5000's, Tactic Tx/Rx.
The boat's about worn out but still rips. The DF is longer at the waterline than the Cyber 32 & the Rico 31; she will stuff the bow & disappear if she hits the wrong wave. When the time comes [
] I'm thinking Rico 31.

The 29" Phantom Cat looks interesting on this guy's site. The 33" you just bought should be an interesting P- class boat ; "spec" means UL-1 motor or similar - a 33" hull might be a little big for that power. For P class, a budget setup could use a 9XL & Chinese SC. P mono & P offshore class with the same boat - think about it.2008 NAMBA P-Mono & P-Offshore Nat'l 2-Lap Record Holder; '15 P-Cat, P-Ltd Cat 2-Lap
