    High end kbb34 mono f/s

    Fellas I really don’t want to sell this boat, but I need to. This boat is probably one the nicest I’ve ever built, and it runs as such. It’s maiden was last weekend. I don’t usually build a boat for someone without running it to be sure it has no issues before I put my name on it. I ran it on 4s only and it was super smooth. I really enjoyed driving it and it’s a hard decision I’ve had to make. The build thread: (do note the list of parts in the build thread have changed) https://forums.offshoreelectrics.com...Doo-mono-build

    ****all electronics are brand new in this boat when I built it. ****
    ****notes: I can paint the boat base coat clear coat, automotive grade a single color of your choosing (pm me for details). I left it gel coat white in case someone didn’t want it the color I had originally planned. I can also cut decals for it if you prefer to carry along the original name I had for it (voodoo mono)

    Parts list:
    34” kbb34 fiberglass hull
    Carbon fiber inlay
    Hatch is heavily reinforced
    New neu custom wound 1521 2050kv
    Carbon covered cooling jacket
    Carbon kintec adjustable motor mount
    Mbp collet
    MGM 25035 x2 esc with carbon trim (comes with everything needed to program and pull logs)
    .187 flex
    Speedmaster billet hardware
    Sealed ball bearing strut
    Extra Speedmaster rudder shortened
    Carbon battery trays
    Carbon esc mount
    Custom carbon servo and receiver mount
    Custom carbon wet well
    Strut is adjustable for height and angle
    Dasboata x450 prop
    Mine own hatch seal method, does not leak
    Carbon vinyl window decal
    Castle bec
    Radiopost green servo
    Billet steering rod ends, high end no slack
    Super thick steering rod
    Led voltage display flush mounted in servo mount
    (2) 4s revolectrix 435 graphine batteries included

    This boat is rtr minus a receiver. If you have a spektrum radio and you ask nicely, I think I’d hook you up with a receiver :)
    I’ll take $1500 shipped obo. PayPal please. Shipped is only in the us. I will ship to Canada and split the cost with you. If it doesn’t sell, my feelings won’t be hurt, I’m having a hard time with parting with it anyways. I priced it as such because I sold the first one I built for this much and it had Tfl hardware and this one is even nicer built (no offense to the owner of that boat) SOLD!!!!

      It's probably stupid to ask, but would you sell hull and hardware? I have all the electronics I need for a couple builds.

        Well I’m in the middle of dialing it in at the moment. The last one I did went 91mph and I had built this one to go faster. I think pretty easy it’ll go 80+ on 6s. This hull is capable of triple digit speeds in certain. I’m going run it possibly this evening (if it’s not too muddy, we’ve been getting a lot of rain) and let you know what it does.

          The thing is, you probably wouldn’t want to pay what I’d ask for the hull and hardware. I’ve got a lot of time tied up in this thing. You can’t buy this hull anymore because it looks like Keith is out of the game. I’m not opposed to selling just the hull and hardware however. Let me think how much and I’ll get back to you.




          *********edit******** I forgot in the original post that the mgm esc comes with the program board, cable and adapter.

              Pssst. (Whisper) if you read the description it says it’s a voltage display lol



              I’m not sure why it shows up blurry when lit in pictures, maybe too bright for my phone?

                  No actually Amos boats does that hull but the shipping on one hull makes it very hard to order just one. Keith bought a bunch at once to get a decent enough deal on it but it was still an expensive hull even after than. If you haven’t seen one in person they are on par with hpr and MHz in quality and thickness. The hull is listed at $250 but it costs about $100 for shipping.


                  I just updated the details. I couldn’t remember everything. I’m not gonna lie, when you think $1500 for a boat like this your probably thinking that’s a lot of money. And it is. But considering I spent about that much in parts and add in my labor (which some tell me is pricesless and I never charge enough) then the price actually goes beyond that. If you were to have me build you this exact boat it would cost a lot more than this. I built this boat for myself, which because I’m not charging someone for every little thing, I add in quite a few details and things to it that makes the costs go up. When you buy a boat I built for myself you get little extras here and there you wouldn’t normally get unless you told me build you something like I’d build for myself.....and I do have those types of customers, don’t care the cost and just want it how I would build it. So take all that into consideration, and I don’t let a boat leave my shop unless I feel like the person getting it isn’t going to have issues. I have a good name for myself and I plan to keep it that way. I always under promise and over deliver.

                      Yea that’s fine. I’ll keep all the electronics except the castle bec and voltage meter and I’ll do it.
