Still need to add 2 caps in the back so water doesn't get in

may work fine....close in that piping and check the range of the boat......no rudder how does it work?

Dual motors not exactly a high end boat but have read on here somewhere that it does the job

[bbosncali]

Also what do you mean by close it in? You mean connect the 2 pieces in the back? I was knda leaving it open to keep it out of the way of the props

My rescue rig looks something like yours for the catcher but I found it wanted to push the dead boat down so I ended up using some coat hanger wire (did not drag too much in water)on the back beam of the catcher with 2 pieces of wire angled down and forward at about 45* angle to help scoop the dead boat and hold it up when pushing it to shore

I have an idea of what your saying anyway you could post a pic

I use the exact boat but I use a tennis ball from the rear and the boat really bogs down with it, let me know how it works that way.
