Those who have one, would you guys consider the Team Pro to be the best <50" hull for rough water? On the fence between a 50" Apache, and team pro. Suggestions??

Shoot, wrong section, my bad, mods please move [:@]

Ultimate48, your strut is on backwards dude. Other than that it's a nice build.

Hey Ron, Thanks
I realized it after I took at the pic's . I put the sturt and rudder on quick for the pic's .
Boat runs good but needs less motor for this hull. I think a stock Zen will be good enough !

Runs good around 40 MPH in rough water !

I've done that too! I took a shot of my Falcon 41 before it ran for the first time not realizing that I put the fuel line on the wrong fitting. Boy, was I embarrassed!

This is a picture of My Venom Strait Jacket ......... It was a piece of crap when i got it new . I painted it and had it decaled to replicate the Fabio Buzzi 1995-96 world champion offshore powerboat "Buzzi Buzzard" . It now has a stock Zenoah and runs much better . The other pic is of the "Bat Boat" i did using an old Aquacraft hull and Zenoah and Speed master gear .

Nice looking boats but the trim tabs are a hair long on the Batboat. Trim them down to 2" max.

Oh .... I agree 100% on the tabs ..... I just did that as an experiment . We run in some pretty big water here in the winter ..... They didn't realy help as much as i thought they would . lol . Infact i think they caused more issues .

I believe there should be a Gas RCBoat Law
#1 Everyone needs to start with a Zipp kit (or similar) wood boat - that way you can appreciate what you have and the work that goes into them

Well done - I love wood boats very cool
