Hi Shipmate60,
I hope your boat did not suffer much damage.

Everything was fine except for ESC and Tamiya plug on battery.
Both changed now.
The ESC was a cheap imitation of a Hobbywing 1060.
No great harm done as I do mount my ESC's where hopefully not too much damage will be done.
I knew I should have checked model for water ingress but as she was running so well didnt.
Pride before a fall!


If nothing else it gave us all an amusing smelly moment when I took the top off.

Sounds like you were lucky then Bob.


If you had smoke coming out of a funnel everyone would of mistaken it for a smoke unit.
