Who is making the 20 sized Rico? I've only seen the gas version so far.

The hull doesn't look bad and the price is right in there with most other major brands if not a little less. I know that the gas version has had its share of success.
The boat on the front page belongs to Dean Werges and that's his paintwork. I've seen his paint jobs in person and pictures don't do them justice! He does all of the boats that you see in the Aeromarine ads.

I've only had very few RTR boats in my time. I'm converting a hull made for electric power over to nitro right now. I'm on my 2nd .21 mono but looking to update that one to either a whole new boat or stripping the existing hardware off that one.
If you get one, do a build thread on it!

Rico hulls are nice, but I think the Speedmaster is made a little better. Here's a pic of my Rico 20:



I still haven't made time to finish it up and run it, but it's close to being ready.
