I dont mean I am using a loan for the boat, the loan was for my SW36, i didnt have enough cash, i was short about........$196, but I needed to get the boat before summer ended or I would never have enough time to use it. Besides I have about 1500$ but its being put in savings for my car.

by the way Im just a freshman in high school, I dont really get a regular income


anyway, about the gecko, a 400 brushless with ten cells will get this little boat in the low 40's, or so ive heard. but if there is even a little chop it would either become a plane or a torpedo. either way is not good but it would be hard to give up the speed. to give you an example of the potential of this boat there is a video of it with a nitro, I would have guess it was going around 35-38 mph- if you want to see it for yourself the website is

just go here and click on videos, it is in bold on the top of the page, once you cliked it keep scrolling down untill you see nitro powered gecko, besides that video there are tons more including two, the first two, of 104"Thats right!! 104 INCH LONG GAS BOATs. its really good and is also where i discovered the gecko.
