Man that is some nice work Rodger. Some of the hottest boats I have coveted for years are in your album! Really impressive.
I am sending you the design sheet I made up for the paint for you to review.
Looking for a rtr p limited sport hydro, rigger or cat legal for Namba. No radio or receiver needed. Not familiar with this class but interested in getting into it. Namba heat racing is the goal. Let me know what you have.
I have heard of the Veles and Blackjack but are the motor, battery and esc combos they come with them decent for compeditive racing and legal for Namba? I want to be sure I am in spec for the class but also compeditive with the other racers. My experience with the 'comes with' power set ups is...
I have been getting my son involved in racing and while he is getting more comfortable with the idea of running the big gas boats that I run I was thinking P limited hydro would be a good class for him to get some laps in and develop as a racer.
I don't know much about the electric classes and...

With my Blazer Slingshot all finished I have been working on an R42 cat hull with a Roger Payne 26 in it. Ready for testing and some graphics but the build turned out very solid and it should a strong runner. This was my first internal strut set up and I am curious to see how it performs.
So sorry for the lack of response Larry. I was off the grid with literally no phone service for the last 2 days.
I got back today and spent a lot of time cleaning up the boat. Some time ago when I primed the inside of the boat I immediately regretted it and spent today cleaning out the primer...
I am traveling for business so I won't be able to take more pics until the weekend. The clear coat on the boat had yellowed and I didn't like the reddish orange paint that had faded a bit so the entire boat was sanded and all the dents and chips filled with West system epoxy and glass bead...
Selling my Eagle SGX 65 rigger hull. I was planning on a complete refurbishment but then I found out not many people run nitro at my local racing club. I am on my second gas hull so I need to make room and find it a new home. All original parts except for the brand new uncut cowl. This was a...
29.5 is definately the preferred ig block set up at the moment. It has a good balance of torque and hi revs.
Be sure to double check the rules you will be racing under if you plan to race.
NAMBA & IMPBA have slightly different rules but you can get a 29.5 to run across both sets of rules if...
