Which to choose 26" Vee
 

So I 've been looking, and think I have narrowed down my choices. First off, I've notice a lot of 17" boats, but the seem to tend to want to duck dive a lot. But the 23- 26" class seems to not be so bad. I am debating between four boats. Any feedback for below, or other options your would recommend for $250 or less.

$150
Helion Rivos - 550sized Brushed, 2600 NiMH battery included, 30A receiver (not Lipo Ready)
($90 brushless motor and esc upgrade package available)

Pro Boat Stealthwave - 550 sized Brushed, 2400 NiMh battery included, 60a Lipo ready receiver

$215-250 range
Helion Rivos BL - 1800kv Brushless, 3S 3600 25C LiPo included, 40A receiver ($250)

Pro Boat Shockwave - 2000kv Brushless, no battery incl, 30A receiver ($215)

26" Deep Vee is nice but once you get in the water and out there it get's pretty small. I've had a few and bigger is better if you step up a bit. The most bang for your buck in Deep Vee is the Hobbyking Inception. 36" hull and 40" overall it stands out and still is good size in the water. Take a look at it and the video and let me know, have a like brand new one that you might talk me out of.

Just what I needed. Another option to consider lol. I sent you a PM.
