justaddwadda, you have tooooo many boats! gimme 1 lol

how much and how fast is that sick jet boat thingy you got?
If you lived closer I would gladly hook you up with a hull - shipping (plus the headache of packing) is more than some of the hulls are worth though.

The gas powered jets are budget busters. Not many companies making the pumps these days.

Jets dont have a great top end speed - acceleration and maneuverability is second to none though.

ok so I can't find this "JAPRIGGER" untill Tchedoff helps me find it on the web somewhere

so does anyone no any other kits/hulls for small rc boats.. like 20-35 inches? something that don't need a freaking 300 dollar 26cc to go fast

small fast boat > big slow boat = my new motto

haha small is my price range

thanks in advance

You dont buy a JAP, you have to build it ; plans are free, and I'll email them to you if you want them (just PM me your email address).

"rigged Insanity"  26 inch long.... says its meant for electric.. what do you guys think bout it? only 84 bucks for kit.. round up a brushless motor might be able to move a lil bit huh?

http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...igged-insanity

a hydro... also might could work for my price range...  but is part of it plastic?  oh and could these two have lil gas engines without being to heavy?

http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...Vintage-Shovel

another hydro... got a favorite so far?

http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...d=ose-rd-24hyd

most all the mono hulls were sold out...heres one that may work ..... 29 inch  umm these are fiberglass right? i DO NOT want plastic lol duh

ok

whats your favorites guys?

i can do any of those, the JAP rigger, an airboat (blah), or i can buy a nitro off ron lol, i forgot my other options : \

Take a look at FUNRCBoats.com to see other +/- 300 electric boats.

And I emailed you the JAP plans & answered your build questions.
