hey ron what kind of boats do you run.Can i see some pics of them

Me? I've got a few right now. I buy some and sell some so my inventory changes.
Right now I have a Microburst with a Picco .45, a Speedmaster 21 with a Rossi Niagara/Pirahna that my son races. Two Hammerhead .12 outrigger hydros a Wild Thing .12 mono, a CEN Racing Grey Thunder and a Zig-Zag Racer. I recently sold my DPI 7.5 OB tunnel and another .21 mono. I've had 3.5 tunnels and some other electric boats. I'm looking for another race boat but not sure what I want to get, maybe a Sport 20 hydro.
As you can see, I like small-block boats. These have been the most fun that I've had in a long time trying to eke more speed out of them.
I'll have to see if I can get a group photo of them.

man you got alot of boats.I've got only one boat,my nh,which i am in the prosess of moding.What do you do for a living?

I'm an Assistant Machine Operator for a major paper company. The title is fancier than the job but the pay is OK. I work on 3 machines, one that puts a wax coating on paperboard, another that puts a poly coating on and another is a roll rewinder to repair defective rolls. The end products are the backing boards that you find in packages of Bacon. We also do other things like foil laminations. Across the street we make cereal boxes for General Mills and we make the "Roni" cartons, Rice-A-Roni and Pasta Roni. We also make our own paperboard, 100% recycled. We used to make Kellogg's cereal boxes and Kraft Macaroni & Cheese cartons. It's unbelievable how many Mac & Cheese cartons that we made there!

KEWL

A sneak peek. In the first shot is my sons and my regular race boats. The second one is one of my Hammerhead .12's. The third shot is a DPI 3.5 OB tunnel that I built for my wife to race.

nice boats ron. those monos look fast!

but my nitro hammer could still beat them.

ya those boats look pretty nice

If we ever hook up, maybe I'll let you drive one!

ya that would be kinda kewl course im only 14,im in eigth gradeand i dont get a bunch of time but ya that would be kewl

thatd be cool. maybe i'll let you drive my nitro hammer.

Can I huh? Can I ?
I've never driven one, just worked on a few of them.

What is kewl? I know it's not in the dictionary, just wondering.

kewl = cool.

yes ron, you can. those NH's are fun little boats.

Normally this topic would be considered off-topic and I'd have to dump it, but I figured that you people maybe ought to get to know me a little. A quick Bio, I just turned 52 about 2 weeks ago, married to the current Mrs. for 19 years with a 17 year-old son. I've run most types of R/C for a good 30 years, busting up planes, trucks, buggies and on-road besides boats.

heres a quick bio of me:

My name is David. im 15 and i have been driving rc boats for about 1 year. first i had a electric boat. nothin special. then i got a nitro hammer. that thing is lots of fun. i like to play guitar and make music with some of my friends.

I found a couple more shots of my .12 powered monos.

ron, how long is that yellow and red mono? and how fast does it go?

24", radared at 33 MPH and not dialed in. It's sitting on the back burner now since I got the Wild Thing .12 and the 'riggers. I was thinking of selling it but my son likes to drive it. He was poo-pooing it because he got jaded on the Speedmaster 21 but has found out too how much fun the little boats are.
The person that I got that hull from built only 2 of them in Nitro form. The other one is sitting in a basement in Grand Rapids, still unbuilt. He was there the day that I had mine radared, so I'm hoping that one day he'll finsh his.

cool. my NH is 24" and little boats are fun. i've never gotten to drive a bigger boat.

i wonder if i could carv a tree truck into a hull and drop a engine in it. hmmm.
