This boat was a joint venture between johnson22456 and me. We have not been using this boat so it is time to sell. We bought this boat off of KillerV to run in 2011 Lake of Ozarks Mini Shot Out. Link to original sale.

We ran this boat on 12s2p using 8-5000mah 3s packs. We talked to Mark F about his boat which did 89mhp with same set up. As per his instructions we improved on his set up with a rebuild of this boat. We relocated the motor as far aft as we could to get an optimum center for gravity. We made custom servo mount to keep servo linkage straight and servo out of the way for better battery placement locations. We foamed the bow and hatch for safety and strength. The hull is in great shape with only one spot on paint on hull and hatch. Some of the black paint is pulled up from taping hatch. It’s hard to see due to black gel coat of fiberglass.
We ran this boat in 2011 Mini Shot out at Lake of Ozarks. Originally we intended to run CC Hydra Ice 240Hv ESC when they first came out but we were never able to run with this ESC due to the problems with then the new Ices burning up on plug in or start up. We went thru about 5 esc and wasted a lot of time with CC on returns and waiting to get another ESC back only to have replacement burn up on start up. I still hate CC ESC to this date because of this. We finial gave up on CC and went with a Swordfish 240HV because it was are only option due to CC wasted so much time that we had to show up to Shot Out untested with boat never really being wet. Thanks again Castle. The Swordfish Esc has impressed me with this boat and has not given use any problems and never heated up.
We were unable to make it down to the Shot Out to run it this last year 2012 due to other obligation.
2011 Shoot Out Pics # (183-186), (243-248),(281-284),(367-378)
The boat ran very well the last time we ran it for fun but we broke flex shaft and lost prop due to strut sliding down on transom and binding the shaft. This was corrected by JB welding strut mounting slots and making them into holes (see pic). So no flex is included. The motor is in perfect shape. Esc, Bec and servo are perfect and have been corrosive X but never wet.
We will sell as is RTR minis prop, flex, batts and radio.

What is included
* Custom painted 45” Insane Mono hull w/hardware
* Very nice boat stand
* Hitec hs-7950TH servo
* CC Pro HV BEC
* HV 240 Swordfish ESC w/program card and disk
* Neu 2230 1Y 750KV w/CF H2O cooler
I think the motor is 08 with rear fan and finned case. We never ran it that much and KillerV said he never ran it that much so I would guess less than 15 short run on motor. Motor bearing are nice and tight.
