            Would you like something like these ?
            A deep v will run in all kinds of water and do some nice wave jumping to,
            If setup right.

              i looked there and i like everything there. so ok your probably better than me at finding the servo and everything it needs so if you could tell me what would work and stay in my price range. also i have the transmitter under control i wanted to buy the fly-sky fsgt3b off their website so ill just need the servo and the pushrods for it. but this boat doesn't come with a battery and charger right?

                  and in the thread, the surge crusher looks cool but it may be hard to find 2 lipos that big with a good charger for about $100

                        No,
                        It does not come with a very bad and cheap charger,
                        Like the other one do.
                        You should get a nice charger that will work good and grow with your hobby.
                        The charger is the heart of the lipo's and they are the whole setups blood,
                        With out them it all stops.
                        Very good servo 2080.

                            How about Aquacraft Revolt?

                            I have seen them race. They look like a quality boat.

                                The Wildcat EP that you like seems like a nice boat.
