      In your first post of the boat on your sell thread, i strickly remember there WAS NOT anything mentioned about the issues I've stated! Nothing about the factory trays, nothing about the hull having paint and spider crack issue's! This is Bull$h!t. If you didn't delete the OP thread you'd see that!!!

          Cracks are probley from the way this was shipped. Parts rolling around inside the hull(servo,motor mount,esc)

            Matt 1234, got the boat today and have a few concerns.......

            1. What brand and amp is the esc?(no factory shrink wrap)?
            2. Paint is chipped in a few places about the size of a dime?
            3. Bottom of hull scratched to hell in back!
            4. Factory trays removed poorly.
            5. Spider cracks in 2 places on bottom of hull.
            6. Pin hole filled on bottom of hull

            I specificly remember in your OP you stated boat needs nothing more than a motor. Yes i may have got a "deal" as you said but you should of explained the boat a little better in your OP. I'm an easy going guy but next time someone else might not be. Basically you should of said the issue's with the boat other than saying 'Needs nothing"!!! I'm a little pissed to wait 2 weeks for the boat to arrive, and then find its not what you said! I think you should makes this right!
            the esc is a hobbyking esc. i had to remove the stock cooling from it cause it was blocked. paint is from the tape. i have no idea what you are talking about with spider cracks. every hull gets scratched and that was already there when i bought it. all of this was there when i bought it! there are no cracks in the hull thats all i new only 2 scratches on the bottom of the hull. the hole is like 1mm in diameter people said to fill it in and get on with it. it was and airbubble under the coat from factory and it broke through the paint. how am i ment to prevent that. also the stock trays were removes to put cabon sheet down as the hulls from these boats are fairly thin and they started to lift anyways.

              well the servo is meant to be like that. try it and i bet you it will work. we put resistors in the back of it for more torque!

                well how else was i meant to ship it thats the only box and thing i could stuff the box with! i wrapped it about 5 times with buble wrap and had airbags unerneath the boat. what else can i do! also i payed so much for shipping i only got like $70 for the boat so yer but i guess thats my fault there! seriuosly there were no spider cracks in the hull when i had it. only scratches which im sure every boat gets!

                    last picture was from tape to hold the hatch down. i think you did alright becasue we paid extra for postage. you ended up getting the boat for $70 plus all the extras i include that you weren't expecting, it is a second hand boat.
