Default RE: Pro Boats at it again



<span style="font-family: Courier New"><span style="font-size: small">Subsinker,

I recently bought a ProBoat P.T. 109 and have had an experience similar to yours. I think I am going to have to replace the ESC on mine. The first time I had it in the water it started going into reverse out in the middle of the lake. Luckily, I was able to get it back into forward and get it to shore. The boat also leaked like a sieve and I am having to fix that problem as well.
These boats are not cheap and I don't think it is unreasonable to expect that for $600.00 you would get a product that is well put together and set up with quality parts. I haven't seen one of the Arleigh Burkes but I was somewhat disappointed with the quality of the construction, fit and finish on their P.T. 109. I doubt that I would purchase another one of their products again. I have written to ProBoats about my dissatisfaction. I'll be glad to let you know if they are willing to take any action to make it right.

Bob
