    FS: Apparition Hull and Hardware Cheap

    I picked this up off swap shop as an RTR for a $225 trade a couple months ago. I was told it had expanding foam in the sponsons and thought no biggy. Well it bulged the front of the sponson and I did not notice till I got home.

    I was going to repair it but I've got to many projects going on at once so It's up for sale. It also comes with the TFL hardware and I've got the motor mount too (not in pic)

    Asking $65.00 plus $10 bucks shipping no insurance lower 48 states.

      If you can do $60 shipped I'll do that. The sponsons are not cracked at all just bulging. It's gonna cost me $17-22 bucks to ship so if you can do $60 it's yours and will go out Monday morning.

                I have a few questions V

                did you run this boat with the bulges?

                why is the stuffing tube gone?

                is the graffix a decal or paint?

                I contacted both previous owners and they claim they never had a problem with the boats handling because of the foam

                just looking for your honest input...I bought it cheap enough and not looking to complain to anyone

                I am debating to throw a feigao 580 9L in it on 6s and see if i can disintegrate it

                or just get it rtr and sell it

                        yup cannot wait etti 90amp 30v fieago 8xl and x440 is the plan on 14.8v

                        maybe a hot iron with a flat blade and cut it out in sections so you can get close to the sponsons with a razor knife..... just a thought

                            problem is you can only reach into the side tunnels so far with a knife like that I dont think my hands will fit in there.....maybe a peice of 3/4" pipe with a drill bit on the end and take out small bits at a time.....

                            I treid some acetone on some dried foam I have here and it wouldnt effect the cured foam what so ever

                            I think I have a big task ahead of me

                              I ran it like this it runs perfectly fine. The front of the hull does not and should not be touching the water except when the boat is at rest. The hull is very good looking as you can tell from the pics. They are decals and paint clear coated over. I was going to use acetone to clear out the foam like I did on my real boat when I removed my fuel tanks.

                              I removed the stuffing tube because I was going to redo the boat. I've got to many projects so I posted it cheap hoping it would get a new home.
