I have looked at those too . ...... There has just recently been an a club started for offshore RC boat racing here in Bermuda and it seems like most everyone has an Apache or an Expresscraft hull of some sort . I wanted something totally different . I made the mistake of trying to modify an old Aquacraft V24 because of it's scale looks ....... But it handles like a canoe with a tuna tower ! It's fun to run ...... But is no competition hull . It's straight line speed is respectable ........ But for gods sake .... Don't try and turn ! So needless to say i haven't bothered to show up with it to any races . Perhaps some of you guys have a few suggestions ? The water is usually quite rough !

YES ! WHH 57 will work as well. they will be a little slower? but they are bulletproof! and the best people in the world to deal with. great value. you might get other boats later on? but you will always have your WHH boat.
