Looks absolutely superb, but does it remind anyone of another boat? Look very much like Mr Marles' Sigma...

That said however, I'd much rather have the Enforcer offering...

Going to be RTR for $1375, With a proper Zen, wonder if they'll just do the hull alone? Would go very well with a pip A90 in it... just a thought

ere Andy do you need all that scrap metal bolted on the back 

[andyn]

Yes Phil, cos otherwise it rolls around like a mad Makara

[Bill D203]

Andy you can't even aford to look at it let alone BUY one.

[andyn]

This is where you are incorrect Bill

The hull is $329, and a A90 from Greg is £90

[Bill D203]

Yes Andy. But it is still only a Multi hull. Try to finish of one of your MANY other boats.

I am sorry to show my ignorance here, but why do they call it a Multi hull, when it only has one??

[omra85]

Its from the very early days of model boat racing, Barry.
The NAVIGA races in those days were either round a triangle (round and back to the start) or a speed/steering course aptly named the "Christmas Tree". Due to the fact that the radios were a common single frequency, the boats competed against the clock, one at a time.
Then they brought out radios which could be operated on different frequencies simultaneously, so a "multi"ple of boats could race together.

So you can have either a MULTI hull (single flattish hull for multi racing) or a MULTIHULL (ie catamaran). Confused yet 

WoW I'm so old

Thanks danny, at least now I know.......I think...

Oh Bill, project cheapo is all ready to go

It's really slow, but according to Greg that's how fast Z boats go

Andy
The Z's are now reaching the same speeds as a fairly quick AA boat (assuming you're using a Novarossi engine  )

Looks more like a L y n x  to me...

Already had this discussion on another forum, yes the hull looks like a Seaducer/Lyn x/Delta Force/Arrowshark, especially when you can see the ride pad on the keel. If it really worked like the Seaducer/Lyn x then half of the stuff on the back is surplus to requirements, just dead weight and extra drag.
