"I'm confused. I just posted after you asked the question and told you, the 8.4v motor is what you want. What are you building a tugboat or fast electric?"

srry about that Ryan, im not trying to ignore you. I made a quick uneducated decision (before i saw your post about the motors) about the motor thinking that 12v would be faster than
the 8.4v. I gues not. if the 8.4v motor is better ill check it out. does that motor still runn on 12 cells?

from my understanding, the prop shaft should come out of the transom right in the bottom of the v so that half of the prop will be in the water when running. am i wrong? what is the best way to determine where to put the prop shaft? ill put up some specs of the boat later and a list of hard ware etc that i plan on using to see if im looking at the right stuff.

thanks
