well guys got to get a few runs in,bit dissapointed with performance but this is down to set up,iv got a couple of issues that needs sorting but now iv run it i know what it is so abit of modifying is required to transom mount then will go again,temps were barely warm so once sorted i will try the 42,1.7 3blade SS on it but want to get it setup the best i can 1st on the 42mm CF prop then check temps again before jumping up.
The hull it self seemed to handle well again will know more once setup.

Having watched the two videos I can now see why some local authorities ban fast electric and I.C.. boats on water where
there are water birds.

LOL when i 1st got there they was at the other end of the pool but then some1 decides to feed them about 50 paces away from where i was standing so hence they followed <*<

Duck in orange sauce would reduce the numbers a little mmmmm {-).
To be fair ive ran gas boats on a man made Boating lake and it amazes me how people come along and feed the ducks and swans right under your feet and then moan about boats possibly hitting them >>:-(,theres even another massive lake next door but because these people feed them they stick to the BOATING LAKE, very very annoying.Dont even get me started on SWANS they're the most annoying,im an animal lover but these things are a complete nuisance,things been those that feed them {-) {-) {-) >>:-( >>:-(.
Oh YES THE BOAT LOOKS GREAT :-))

LOL cheers mart,they are that ;D

I have to agree with martno1 about the birds on the water.
I think the Best way to look at swans and geese is through a telescopic site.
they make more mess than dog's, they foul slipways and walkways .
the disease they carry is unbelievable, and they are 'blinking!' ferocious.
I have been attacked by the ******** when in a rowing boat, had a small outboard knocked off the boat by a swan
and had my little brother attacked by one.
When a youngster even our dog got attacked, but unfortunately for the stupid swan, the dog tore it to bits in seconds.
If you look at the waters edge, you'll see it is a man made structure not a natural lake.
Never had duck in orange sauce, sounds pretty good to me.
far too many foolish people taking bread down to the water to feed the swans geese ducks etc, it makes them keep
coming to people.
and bread is very bad for them as well.
nice model by the way
