New Proboat Products: BlackJack 29, Impulse 31 V2 and more
Proboat is shaking up the boating world again!
To add to the new re-vamped boat lineup some new esc's are coming out with them and the motors are also getting re-vamped and are looking awesome!
First up is the BlackJack 29 and this thing looks HOT!!!!

Their is a typo on the details page with one section listing 1800kv motor and the other listing 1500kv, waiting to get the "offical" confirmation, but inside source is saying 1800kv.

The Impulse 31 now is at V2. Same motor spec typo, (no word as of yet) but it is also getting the new 80amp 6s esc which makes me thing it maybe the 1800kv motor. The new theme on this boat looks wicked as well!

The entry level Shockwave is now a V2 Brushless with a new 45amp 3s esc and the trusty PB 1500kv motor. Yes the rpm's will be low on 3s, but this is a plastic entry level boat and if one needed to upgrade to something faster a quick esc swap your good. Let's keep in mind "entry" level and "plastic". Also comes with new offset hardware and got away from the steerable outdrive.

Dang! You beat me to it!
I'm in the market for a new toy, probably an electric catamaran. I've been readng up alot, and looking at the Miss Geico, Mystic 29, and Motley Crew... now I'm even more stumped... good thing I've got another month or so of saving up first...LOL
There's a video on youtube... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8obtZbHnAg8
Gotta look into the new Miss Geico, as that's the one I wanted, untill I read enough to want a Mystic, a MG sticker sheet, and some paint LOL
Anyone think I should hold out, or just go ahead on the Mystic or Motley Crew......? Probably will only be running 4s, but headroom on the ESC couldn't hurt...
I'll be watching this thread...

Changed brand of motors to dynamite from the original supplier, still 6 pole though, bigger connectors from the factory as well.

I was wanting the Miss Geico before on looks, then after reading more I decided the Mystic was a better choice. For now I'm going to probably get the Motley Crew or Mystic, and hope for a V2 Miss Geico for the holidays,.... my B-Day is 12/30... Anyone suggest I just wait it out? I think the Blackjack 29 is more than I need... I'd be more into stock speeds of 35-40 and looking for additional runtime...
