Thanks. I don't plan on abusing mine, so that my kids can have something to drive for more than a week. I agree about the ESC and motor- very nice, and the cooling water flow is excellent. I personally have had no issues with removing the prop shaft, greasing it up, and replacing it. Takes 45 seconds, tops.

I didn't pick this boat after a ton of research- in fact, I just happened to be in my hobby shop looking for car parts and saw the thing sitting on a shelf, right next to the BlackJack. Anyway, knowing me, I'll end up having six boats sitting on my workbench before long- my car collection is sickening!
