    Kids who might like a boat?

    I have a Aquacraft Mini Thunder that I was going to put a brushless motor in but have decided not to do that now. Here is the deal.
    I am going to give this boat away (as it was given to me by Grim).
    It comes with the following.
    Complete Hull and Cowl all running gear and one extra prop.
    Stock motor
    No Radio (the receiver says channel 4 )

    The hull is totally white with no graphics on it. at all.

    If you have a child who might like this post here. I will close the post on 12 noon Pacific time on Oct 1 and will draw a name randomly and will include shipping.

      This is cool. Another site I belong to, Weaponsguild, also does this regularly. Pass on something that has some value that you do not need anymore. If you win it in the drawing, good for you. See if you have something you can pass on also.

      Only thing I would ask is if you win it, you have to give it away as opposed to sell it in the future. Help someone else out.

      As far as kids, I have plenty. Just not sure I want them to have this. After seeing my mini cat running, thy will want a brushless in it. Then what

            Throw me on there for my nephew. My brother in law and I feel bad when he wants to drive the blackjack and we gotta say he's too little. Very kind of you sir.

              Hey Jim!
              My nephew (Dragan) would love it too! Count me in.

                I'm pretty sure that shipping cost are to be covered by the winner. Could be wrong, but pretty sure.

                      guess I'm wrong then. I'd still be inclined to offer shipping costs. Offering something is a great deed, but you should not go out of pocket for it.

                        Hi Jim
                        I have two daughters, Monica and Alexandra and hope one of them will get in to this hobby.
                        This would help. Please count them in.
                        They now are aware of it and waiting for the draw.
                        Thank You
                        Robert

                            It would be nice to have names of the entrants.

                            Also I think I can sweeten the pot a little. I know I have a custom built 35 amp RC- Hydros ESC that Andy gave me and I think I also have an older but in great shape Futaba AM radio and receiver to throw in but I need to confirm and I am not going to be able to tear the garage apart to find everything right now I will confirm by tomorrow.
                            So all that would need to be done to get it running is to do a little wiring and add a battery and let her rip. I will also add in a few deans connectors for rewiring.

                              Hi Jim!

                              I have two boys, Nigel and Nick, who would love to get started with something like this. Would you please drop their names in the hat? Not politicing or anything, but I could pick it up. I live in Federal Way!

                              Thanks!
