Warehouse Hobbies Viper
Does anyone own or know anything about the 55"Viper deep vee hull? It's offered as a RTR at www.funrcboats.com and offered as a special order from Warehouse Hobbies,but I've never seen any reviews or comments on on it as to it's quality and handling in different water conditions.I like the size and looks of the hull,but would like some input before making a decision.

OK, just saw the boat on the link you gave. Looks like a new design that has not hit the WHH website yet. I remember seeing that hatch when I visited WHH late last year. If it is indeed a WHH boat, then you can't go wrong.

If I'm not mistaken the Viper is a Manta Ray with a different hatch. I'm fairly sure about this 55" hull with all the usual goodies from Tony. Can't go wrong with his stuff.
My Magnum 57 is excellent and great fun with no problems since the day I got it.

RE: Warehouse Hobbies Viper
I have a WHH Viper. Have had it for 1 year. Great boat!! Same as the Manta Ray; just different hatch. I bought a Manta Ray hatch to run the boat and i use the Viper hatch for display. WHH told me it was to expensive to make the Viper hatch. (it is a nice detailed hatch).
. and available in kit and easy to build and operate. very nice boat
