    Default big boat little motor

    well my nomad is almost done. i just a a few little things and hope to get it in the water this weekend. im going to be running a mega 22/45/2 geared on 22 cells with a x447 or x646/3 prop. with 22 cells it give me about 36000 rpms at the motor. im starting out at 2:1 ratio which should give me about 30mph with the x646/3. here a some pics.

    hammer i used a 5/32 bit and tubing. i did not paint or decal the boat. it was a used hull. i would not have this if i did not find this used one. a new hull and decals cost about $450.
