            Just updated my build thread on these, added another video. Fun times, perfect for a mystery brushless motor and esc for $21 del!

                Well I got one of Brians crackerboxes this week, and I would have to say that I was very suprised when I pulled it out of its well packed box. A very solid build! The hull is reinforced at the transom with plywood, and the bow is foam filled. The skeg and stuffing tube are epoxied in very solidly. The prop shaft is well made and included the drive dog, plastic prop and prop nut. The coupler is well machined and attaches to the flexcable perfectly. The motor mount is made perfectly for the outrunner motor the he suggests in his thread and is well aligned with the stuffing tube. The trim tabs and rudder are wonderfully made and installing them is a breeze! All in All a great little setup! IMHO I believe that the asking price is a little low for what you will receive. You guys wont be disappointed with this boat. I actually got this for a fun floater for my Ole Lady, But I think she is going to have to get to it when I am sleeping to have any time to run it! KUDOS to you Brian!!!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

                  Dangerous,

                  I see the posted prices of $65(w/o hardware) and $25(needs assembled w/o hardware), but how much was yours with the hardware ready to go?

                  Thank you.

                    Well, you would have to ask Brian. Either way IMO your getting a deal. Consider the novelty factor, plus you can have great fun with it!

                        Boat arrived today and looks great. Thank you again and glad you like the cracker.

                        Chris, if there is something you want, just PM me. His boat would probably run around $100, maybe $140 with motor and WC ESC. It was the only one I did that was that complete. Sometimes it just depends on what else I have on my plate and how fast you want it. I still have a few of them left at the $65, plus I have mounts, couplers, tabs, turn fins, motors and ESC's right now. Only thing I need to make is rudders, but you can also get a very nice one from HOR on the cheap.

                              I'm dying to run mine but my kid has sort of lost his interest.
                              The batteries finally arrived from HK but the one charger that I have seems to be temperamental so I'm waiting for the charger that I oredered from hobpartz.

                                Still for sale

                                Still have a few for sale. One of just the vacuum formed pieces ready to be trimmed, a couple assembled with the foam and kevlar/carbon laid up.
