    Default Looking to buy brushless 1/8 unlimited hydroplane

    Hello, I am a new member here. I am also new to the world of RC Boats, but not new to the hobby-grade RC world. I have been building and racing 1/10 and 1/8 scale off road vehicles for 25+ years. I am an avid Unlimited Hydroplane fan and attend the races in Detroit frequently.

    I am looking to buy or build a 1/8 scale sized brushless boat. I am new to some of your terminology and wondered what FE stands for? I am looking for a complete boat, near complete boat (minus electronics, but ready for them) or possibly pay someone to build a boat for me. The boats I am interested in would be (in no particular order): Winston Eagle, Smokin Joe's, Circus Circus, Oh Boy! Oberto or Miss Budweiser. I am not looking to buy a boat that need repairs at this time. I am leaning towards a new build. However, I am looking for some real honest advice regarding what type of labor costs would be involved on top of purchasing the necessary kit, parts and pieces required to hire someone for complete new build. I have seen some absolutely incredible builds on here and would like one of my own. Looking for some help! Thank you in advance

    This is a serious inquiry! TIA!
