    F1 tunnel hull and the new brushless Graupner 820

    Hi Steve

    Since you are selling the some Graupner outboards motors, it would be nice to sell an F1 tunnel also. They complement each other.....

    Aeromarine has a nice one, the Predator. Do you plan to sell it in the future?http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...flammes-09.gif


    I also saw on the german Graupner website a new brushless outboard, the GTX 820. Would be nice that you sell it too...... http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...t2/rockon2.gif


    At the moment I'm undecided between the Fuller's outboard unit of the new upcoming brushless Graupner 820.....http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/.../confused2.gif



    Cheers

      I havent seen the new brushless outboard. That will be cool. The graupner f1 is a ton of money to import with the euro and shipping fees.

            I admit a little over 3 bills is a bit much. Just wait for the US dollar to get stronger
            But seriously. The brushed 800 is around $250. I don't think $65.00 more for the brushless version is that bad!!!!!

              Hi guys

              The motor should be a bit cheaper in the US. The taxes (GST) are high in Europe compared to US and is normally around 17.5%.

              The only thing is that the US dollar has depreciated a fair bit against other major currencies in the past 12 months.....

              I'm from Australia and I find the same things are ususally cheaper in US than in Europe or Australia. I suppose also that there is a lot of substitutes and healthy competition US that keeps the prices down.....

              Would be good to hear some review about the new motor and how it is designed. The Graupner website does not have much in terms of pictures or drawings of then motor. The outboard unit can be purchased with or without motor and water cooler though....

              Cheers

                Steve,
                It would be preety cool to get a 21 tunnel on your site... Maybe conversion kit for the 3.5 lawless OB lower. I think that would be the ticket. the lawless Is about$145 at Its highest add some for thr conversion kit and you have a race proven lower. all down hill from there.......

                mho.
