When I think of Venom, and the boats they make, all I can think of their previous offerings like these:

These babies have dual motors too!
I don't know how a company goes from sub NQD quality bathtub boats to $1000 gas boats and $500 brushless boats overnight and expects people to take them seriously.
At least change the name of the boat division of the company or something...

I hear you but, I know electric race boats and this one, at least the bare hull looks like fun. Close to Johnny's Cat on Ebay but, hopefully better sponsons, 
The cat i got from Johnny has some funky sponson angles... I think it is a mistake??!!

Yeah, looks like a great boat. 34" on dual brushless is a great size. I'm normally a gas boater but sometimes I want something smaller, my 60+" gas boats are a pain to lug around.
