We have a place by us that has rc boats up to 6 feet in length. I go there to dream often. The largest one that i have now is about 36" and runs in the
70s, we make our own fuel, 75% nitro.

fkboatman , Those # 6's are available . I prefer to build my own stuff . I've built the scale Arneson drive for my 46" Prather back in the 80's , using a cheap 38cc Pioneer chainsaw engine , converted to watercooling .Most popular gas engines are by Zenoah today .

Which hull is more fun; the unlimited hydro or the V?
I would assume the V could be used more often due to water conditions:confused:

This one is the best! It handles chop real well but the smooth coves are a kick! I like the fact that this one fit's in the ski locker in my boat so for us non skier's it's not just waisted space. It's my toy box!
