    Sweet! That's gonna be a nice boat! I love the cat paint job on your hydro. That thing looks like it must boil the water under it! Very sharp.

    I guess a solid 45mph on 4s.

    I agree the ESCs will be the weak links in a large boat, and they will limit what you can do speed-wise.

    Right on man!
    I feel like a kid at Christmas....
    I got my second boat sold, and waiting on payment for two of them...

    What about some S225's? decent size with some good pitch

    120's, that's a thought..
    I do want to try out on 4s with the stockers, so maybe low 50's?

    Thanks, it is the first step in building something that works good. I am going to do something similar with my SC33 when I get to the build of the twins hull. I also have a HPR 06 that I am going to put in twin 1527's that need something stronger but accessible.

    the Scat Cat looks like I would have a hard time getting twins into it..
    I have been pondering just that with several boats. One of my customers brought in a 28 inch hull to build for him. this was my answer. I put a wedge under the motor mount now I can get the the bottom screws with no problem to remove the motor.

    Looks like it will be the Team Believer..
    I want to do a Caterpillar theme like my UL-1
    I'm thinking where the dark blue is that will be black and where the light blue is will be yellow..
