Default HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Made a mistake and bought a CEN AQUA JET. At least I think. I'd like to go electric or straight gas. Too much equipment with NITRO.
Not to say money is not an object but I am willing to spend some to get something worthy.
I'd like to race one day but for now just to play. I want something that I can stick with al the way. Upgradable for top speeds, mono, deep-v, kit or ready to run. I'm very good with my hands and have great patience. I like the idea of fiberglass but would it be too heavy for electric?
Any and all help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Oh yes, I have looked through many posts both here and RC groups discussion boards concerning this.
Thanks again.
Scott

if you want to build your own boat check out aeromarinerc.com for some good hulls. if your looking at rtr you should look at offshoreelectrics.com. and fiberghlass is certainly not too heavy for electrics. one more thing you should check out http://www.funrcboats.com/ProductInf...id=AERMEANRTRE

Oooh, I like the Mean Machine (but not the price), Cats are a good choice with a fair mixture of stability and performance, Have a look at MHZ USA, Fine Design, BBY Racing, RumRunner Racing and Offshore electrics to begin with.

Your final choice of hull will be largely dictated by the conditions where you intend to use it, for example in choppy water deep Vee's are best

The Aqua Jet is not a bad place to start, good reports from many, but for just that little bit more then look at those above, also try:

It's hard to see how much fun Micros are until you run one, then you are hooked!

They Also have free Plans if you feel upto building from scratch
