Default Gas powered...

I have enjoyed the gas power because it is so much easier to run than nitro. Nitro engines have to be fiddled with all the time and it gets old quick. And they can be a real pain to start too.

Electric is easy too but becomes expensive when you start looking for more speed because you end up having to buy new speed controls, larger cell batteries and new chargers that can handle the batteries.

Deep Vee are great for beginners because they are so stable and cut through the water with ease, epecially if there is a little wind blowing. They are very controllable in the turns and when set up properly, are hard to flip. Because flipping a boat upside down is the last thing you want ver to happen!!!

I sent you an e-mail too that you may be interested in.
