Default RC Dolphin Nitro Boat -Help needed Plz

Hey Pals, I just purchased a new Dolphin Nitro Boat and its missing one of the belts in the drive train.can anyone steer me in the direction where I can buy one of these? I saw the Dolphin website but I dont speak Chineese[] ...I know this boat is really cheaply made but it would be fun to at least see it run a few times. Thanks fpr any help . Paul

Do a search on the Dolphin boat. One member had to find some as his boat tossed them.

Mastic,


What did you end up paying for the boat? If you havent ran it yet, I would send it back for a full refund and look into something more reliable. There have been a few suggestions in one of the prior posts regarding the Dolphin. From what others have posted, you will be lucky to see it run a few times.

my two cents

Scott

Is this Dolphin white with blue stripes/graphics.I would get your money back!Their junk!!! I saw a bunch of them on Ebay for sale for parts. Hulls would cracked after 5 runs and all the bushings would go bad after 5 or less runs on it.The guys on ebay were swearing up a storm/not in a good way and warning ever body on ebay about them. I'd just saw one on ebay they re did the paint job. white with blue and purple splash graphics on it. if that it, get your money back!![8D] I was think about getting one last spring,but thankGod I didnt.

Wow that supper cheap!!! Well run it untill it goes bad. I can asked the guy who's selling new ones. if he can get parts for it? I'll let you know. At least if the hull goes or bushing on the out drive goes.You can use the radio, servos and motor to put in a different boat.
