Isn't everything a contender for an offshore class

[Steven Vaccaro]

My question is that is it possible to make this a contender in a offshore class?

Very cute!

Great job Diegoboy! I am inspired! I have always liked jet drives and have my electrovee in drydock awaiting some hot impeller action. I could have told you about the hatch that was one of Dads first move when I made him try 6S. He also moved the antenna to a fixed mount outside of the hatch area... You probably already dunnit... Superb work and congrats!!!

Thanks!
I did, the hatch is no place for an Antenna tube IMHO

You probably have twice as much as I do.

I wish I had half of your building talent!

[Diegoboy]

Diegoboy you rock!!

Thank you!

[H2OCamel]

Dieago,
Don't feel bad about the tree.....I'm so good with driving my scale HPR-115 that I hit the only glass beer bottle on a 1 mile diameter lake at full speed! However I have managed to miss all the canadian geese that our frends to the NORTH keep sending here.

I have read this thread backwards so that is why my posts are not timely

Increadible job on the build! When people here tell me something won't work makes me more determinded to prove them wrong

[H2OCamel]

Peter, as usual you have some really neat stuff. That drive looks like a piece of art.

Douggie

AMEN TO THAT! brother

[H2OCamel]

Diegoboy you rock!!

[Diegoboy]

I'll let you know Doby

[Diegoboy]

Now, when can I buy it??

make me an offer Doby!

Was it dead in the water due to the RX getting wet?

Yes. She spun out (I didn't install the turn fins yet.) and the water got into the RX because I didn't tape the hatch or bag the RX.

Or were you able to get it back to shore?

She drifted mostly back to shore before I got the tennis ball out to her.

Looks like it will be one fun boat for sure.
I could easily have a blast with that kind of speed.
Not too fast and its not too slow.

She would have moved faster if I had a full charge on that Lipo. I was just in a hurry to beat the sunset that day.
