    FS: New Year's 1/12th scale Elam build

    SSSSOOOOOLLLLLLDDDDDD

    Happy New Year to all. I need to sell a few more boats... so here is first up.

    I absolutely love the Proboat's hydros, and have the dream of a 3-4 boat fleet. Well not yet.

    $239 shipped and insured cont US international pays difference

    Here is brand new (un-used) Elam hull with all the hardware I was gonna use on it. Hull is in mint condition, no blemishes or even scuffing of the bottom. Hatch nuts are included. This is the nitro version, but oddly the ply formers are not present, thus allowing for greater ability to fine tune the COG. In my last one (which I had to sell) I ended up placing significant weight in the nose and then some flotation - she performed better when half of each pack was tucked into the sponsons. I was able to get her sealed up using plexiglass subhatch that was taped off under the cowl. these nitro versions look smoother than the electric hulls AND allow more tuneability for the COG challenge.
    $99 shipped

    Venom 2000KV motor with maybe a dozen runs (out of my KOS P1 mono) and motor mount ($50) sollllllllllld
    70A ESC with pistix in perfect working order - unknown brand, probably himodel - water proofed and cooled with 4mm bullets on motor side. ($40) solllllllllllllld
    gently used standard Futaba servo and mount ($10)
    strut, rudder and coupler for brand new flex drive (I just opened up the package to make sure it fit and it does). ($30)
    Extra sturdy turn fin gently used with new bracket ($40)
    radio box lid, rx balloons and some cooling tubing.

    You have everything here you will need to get her out on the water. Builder will need to provide building materials and nuts and bolts. I can add THE prop for this boat (b/s X642) at a minimal cost ($20).

    I will only part out if somebody wants/pays for the hull first.

    I can post other pics if anyone wants to see something closer.

              I think the hull has a buyer, so I can let you have the ESC / motor combo - what kind of connectors do you need on battery side?... I was kinda hoping it wouldn't sell cause I was really interested to see how it will do in a hydro - I am sure it will ROCK!!!

              Leon, I can let you have it for $85 shipped - can go out today (the nice postal carrier comes about noon MST) and be in your boat this weekend --- on one condition: you report back and let me/us know how it works in the hydro! It is a great little motor and packs quite a punch.
