    Aquacraft VS-1 conversion for sale

    I'm selling my VS-1 tunnel hull electric conversion.
    I've had to drop out of the boat scene because the local boat pond has been invaded by Canadian geese and they won't go home. I can't go 100 feet without feathers getting caught in the prop.
    This boat has less than 10 runs on it and runs/looks great.
    Here's the hardware that's included:

    Aquacraft UL-1 motor
    Aquacraft UL-1 ESC
    Aquacraft UL-1 water cooling jacket
    REK lower unit
    Modified motor mount which allows fore/aft and angle adjustability
    Futaba S9551 digital low profile servo
    Marathon 1600 receiver pack
    (2) aluminum motor couplers
    (4) Octura props sharpened and balanced (M440, X440, X637,X640)
    (2) Octura props not sharpened and balanced (X438, X642)
    Extra hatch cover which allows room for an Eagle tree Data logger
    Boat Stand

    Batteries and radio receiver not included.

    The cowl was professionally painted at an auto paint shop (green with a blue pearl finish).
    The enclosure was sealed with West Systems marine epoxy.
    The motor was sprayed with CorrosionX after every run.
    The flex shaft was removed, cleaned and lubed after every run.

    Here's video of the boat in action with an M440 prop. :



    I'm asking $350 plus actual shipping charges through Paypal.

        I hate them Canadian geese too, We have a local pond but guess what, them useless geese eats, sh!ts, breed in that local lake. Unfortunately them old folks seem fond of them and feed them. I won't run my boats in that lake. But they are protected up here or else they would be gone. Sorry just had to rant too!!

        BTW...Very Nice VS1. I just wish I had the $$, I would have snatched it off your hands.
        Cheers!

          The city built the pond specifically for model boats, but there are always more people with loaves of bread than boats. They win.

              David, what a shame. You built a great looking and running boat that's well constructed. This is a good deal considering all the work involved in rigging a VS-1.
              Don't even think of parting it out; someone will definitely get lucky buying this boat as is
