Don't think of them as pontoons. Think of them as lifeboats. You just never know when you might hit an iceberg... even in NC.

One to ponder.

:lol: you know, they probably are close to the right size for the MMM cambo and recaiver to fit in one and the battery and servo in the other :rules:

Well there is mardi gras. Park a cadillac in a thimble with room to spare... :rofl:

no interest in putting your cc combo in a $100 hull and probably hitting high 50's or low 60's.....and having a boat that will be as stable as heck?

all the money you are spending on glue, duc tape and glue sticks you could be building a real boat?:lol:

just my 2 cents

+1. It's very easy to make your own cooling jacket so you could make a cooling jacket of your own to fit that CC motor and then plop it in a proper boat with a proper propellor and have a very solid performer. A marine ESC would be a good idea when you get the money, but for the time being :whistle:

ticklechicken 09.10.2009 11:42 AM

Yeah, you should get a better hull and build the average-everyday-run-of-the-mill boat. I'm sure that would get 7 pages of replies.

Keep up with the chaos, please.

I took a kb45 cooling jacket and just got some o-rings to work and it fits perfect the i.d. of the jacket is about 1/8" bigger than the castle neu fins

but yes you can make nice cooling jackets out of strips of CF and resin

I bet he will have alot more fun ounce he hear's that motor winding out at 60 mph 35,000 rpm and his rooster tail spraying on the turns

well, i would like to spend money on a nice boat hull but i have no money at all. I actually owe my mom and dad money (i'm 16 btw) and i've built it compleatly from parts i've had maying around the house (other than the two small boats that i got for less than $10). Part of the point of the project is to get a laugh or two and have fun building it! I don't normally care too much for buying a good boat hull and screwing in another motor. Plus, I don't have any use for a nice boat, i must drive 15mins to the lake with a ton of trafic or 20mins to a stream big enough to have a lil fun in. otherwise i would use it twice a year when i went down to alabama to visit grandparents. Or actually, we sold their lake property so that wouldn't happen.

not to mention that i can't seem to find a decent boat hull for cheap
