Good day to all, since I am not having any luck finding a 65" Recon Apache hull I am looking for another New/unused boat hull. This one happens to be an Original Warehouse Hobbies Magnum 57, it can have either the Old Skool or close Canopy style hatch or Team Pro Hull. I would prefer the Mugnum 57 but, would take a Team Pro if I can't get a Magnum. I have had a few of these hulls and love how strong they are! It has to be one built before Warehouse Hobbies was sold, made before July of 2013. You can email me at: [email protected]
Thanks in advance, Kenneth.

There is a nice one in the for sale section.

Thanks Madanna67. If it's the Red ready to run Magnum 57, I saw it but I am just looking for the bare hull.

SS RC Boats

I must say there are plenty other manufacturers that make hulls out of stronger lighter material these days if strength is your main concern. I have had a few of the first Magnums back in 96' which were 53" and yes they were strong but had stronger lighter hulls since than.

Talk to me SS RC Boats. I have had really good experiences with these boats that I am looking for. I also love lines and looks of these boats. But, what do you suggest? Like you I live on a Island and like to run in the rough stuff.

Take a look at our web site, Expresscraft boats.com and look under a boat is born, there we show you how our boats are built, Gel coat is sprayed, 1 layer of 1 1/2 oz mat, backed by 5.8 oz carbon fiber twill on all surfaces even the hatch, then we reach inside and glass the deck and hull together, typical 54" deep vee 225.00 plus shipping. Our carbon fiber 65" GTX is 350.00 we have been building boats since 1989. I do not think you will find more boat for the money anywhere.

Two very good all around boats are Tom's 65" GTX from Expresscraft and either the Speed Freek 58" Apache from Ross @ Full Throttle RC Racing or Martno1fan (here on RCU) 58" Apache from Waverider Mouldings. Personally i owned Tom's GTX with a QD25cc high torque motor and it ran in the early 50's very easily. Turned corners very good also,without a turn fin.

Here is an old video of my GTX running with present setup as mentioned above….again NO turn fin is used.

Thanks Nosedragger, but in the beginning of the thread I stated that I wanted one that was made before the original owner sold the company. Thanks for all you all help and suggestions but, I am looking for these particular hulls because their exactly what I want. Hopefully some with one of these hull we answer. Thanks again for your help, but I'll keep looking.
Kenneth.
