If you want a boat that will run in the waves the Rio will be better. For flatter water the Thunder will be a bit better.

Major newbie here. We live in a city that has a narrow lagoon that goes through our backyard. Only electric boats are allowed. Would like a hydroplane but the Miss Elams of the world are out of my budget. Would this be a good beginner boat and how fast does it go? (stock motor and/or 400) I don't need lightning speeds, but don't want to get bored quickly either. Want something that's RTR I don't need to fiddle with a lot or sink in a bunch of $$$. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
