    Fiber glass pursuit near new hull and hardware FS

    I built this from a new bare hull.
    Asking $250 plus shipping. Cont us, international pays extra. PayPal only.

    I ran it 2-3 times on p lim power on 4S and got a pretty stable 50 mph on gps.
    I laid honeycomb carbon fiber cloth and installed a wet well for added strut adjustability.
    Speed master hardware is dialed in for race water. Servo is hitec waterproof digital.
    Carbon fiber strip was added to the hatch and rare earth magnets hold the hatch in place for taping.
    Paint job is 98%, with a couple minor shallow scratches. Water outflow uses the faux exhaust.
    Just add: motor, esc, rx, batteries, prop, hatch tape and you are winning races.

      Someone pm’d me thinking the strut is backward.. well, it is that way on purpose.
      Since there is a wet well, the blunt side forward allows for a longer rearward extension for better handling.
      I have built a dozen or so boats this way with great results.

      For those who may be unfamiliar, the wet well, or flooded stuffing tube, allows for enhanced adjustability, height and angle independently.
      This is so the driver can use a wide range of props, which allows greater motor selection.

      Please post all questions and offers in the thread and not in private messages.
      Open to reasonable offers, no trades.

          Seems like a good price.
          Question - I see your turn fins are in some from the chines.
          I have always heard to put them at the chines.
          Just wondering the reason for in-boarding them

          Thanks

            I like to put the turn fins at the top of the vee, which some would argue IS the chine.
            In my book, the spray rail is outboard of the actual chine.
            Does this help?

                Brian, it will cost around $60 to ship, plus or minus, so you are asking for a $100+ reduction.
                Not into giving it away. I would entertain $250 shipped.

                  I totally understand. I shipped a Traxxas Spartan several months ago and if I remember correctly, it was $54 and change. So I told him that earlier and I was reluctant to even send you the offer but, he kinda begged, so I agreed. I just now told him your reply and he said he'll think about it. Thanks for being a gentleman Jesse.

                        Jesse, I'll take it for $250 shipped. I told him he'll be getting a solid hull. Send me your PayPal info and I'll send payment when I get home from work. Thank you
