    Who's interested?

    I haven't done a build thread in a while. The main reason is I figured you guys got burnt out on me doing them. If that's so then I won't bother, it takes a lot of my time to do a build thread.....taking pics, posting them and writing about them. I don't mind doing it if you guys find it helpful but if you do enjoy it and find things helpful then let me know, I'll be glad to continue sharing. You guys are the only ones I share this stuff with because I have no boating buddies nearby. I have a few boats lined up to be built, I'll list them and let me know if there's any interest in builds for them and I'll do a thread(s) on it (or them)

    Cheetah single (I have two of these on the building log)
    Rivercat 6s version (all out speed attempt)(partial build, it's almost finished)
    26" carbon mono (75+ attempt with handling on lower voltage)
    34" kbb34 mono (100+ build attempt)
    37" Daytona
    Demon rigger
    Rivercat twin semi sport (mix of speed and sporting)
    And a mini Rivercat that I really don't know what I'm doing yet whether it be a twin or single. Leaning towards a twin since I have a 90+mph single 4s model already.

    Gimme some feedback.

    Always interested in any build thread, sir! I like to think of it as a good reference for the builder as well. Nice to look back and see what you did before, lessons learned, etc... Thanks!

              I always love to see your build threads regardless of what boat. I can always learn something from your builds. Would love to see a commonly available rigger done, ie. Jae FE 21, or ML RSX310, something more common then the Etti Demon.

                    It's fair to say we all love your build threads, you do awesome work and have great ideas.
                    I would love of you could attempted a mono outboard boat.
                    I love an outboard look and haven't seen all that many on here.

                        I actually looking at the jae riggers a while back. That's still an option. I like riggers....building not so much tho. Lol

                          Thank you. I wouldn't mind doing a scale bass boat with an outboard. That would be neat!

                            I actually can't wait to build that thing. Do you still have one? Is your fiberglass? If so, I might be willing to swap you a carbon canopy for your fiberglass canopy so I can gps mine. Your gps will still read through the fiberglass hull. Pm me if interested. My little 26" shockwave went 64mph on 4s but it wasn't too stable because it was extremely light. I'm pretty sure I can beat that speed with this hull on less voltage. We shall see!
