    Default NEW Proboat Thundercat 31 (TC31) Replacement Hull with some mods

    Brand new Pro Boat Thundercat 31 (TC31) replacement hull.

    Hull is brand new, but has had some of the inner wood removed in the motor-mount area to begin an FE conversion. Transom was drilled up to accommodate a pair of Outboards, and stuffing tube was cut out.

    Great project hull to do a twin conversion, or ???

    These are great quality hulls that are basically a "snapshot" of the Cheetah or Mean Machine style bottoms. Boats are fast and handle really well.

    Package does include the original Nitro style radio/servo box and accessories.

    $125.00 shipped in the USA.

    Hey Guys... willing to consider reasonable offers. Would really like to clear out some more storage space on the shelf!

    Let me entice you a bit... This would make an AMAZING Twin 4S or 6S setup. Handling and performance-wise, it's a better choice than the MG/Mystic/BJ29, and it has more room inside as well. Bottom is essentially like a Cheetah, so it corners great.

    Sold?? Surely someone out there is looking for a low-cost, but VERY nice way to get a project on the bench! YOU, perhaps?? :)

    Here is the idea behind what I was going to do with this hull... I saw this boat run (friends in our club) and, powered by a pair of the original SV27 motors on 4S, it FLEW!!

    And you can still buy the Pro Boat Stiletto outboards from Horizon, if you wanted to finish what I started. They'd work something like this:

    It's an open slate. Single, twin, twin outboard, it's up to you.

    Are there holes in the back that have already been drilled that I will need to fill in? I cannot really tell from the pic and that is what holding me back.

    Yes, there were two sets of holes drilled for the outboards. You would just need to tape over them on the outside, then fill with epoxy from the inside and let it sit, tips up, overnight. Not a big deal.

    It's already met the low reserve on Ebay, so it's going to go to whoever wins the bidding. Probably will get a solid deal.
