I had build the wood version of this boat and it went down the straight away fine but through the corners this boat is not to good. This is what was happening with my hull.

Hey Jul........it sounds like it is a ABS material hull. I had one many moons ago...........not a bad boat but wont hold a candle to your HTB 360

i agree with scott, abs & not even in the same league as a htb. if you want a hot shot, find a wood one. the one in your lhs would be a good play/fun boat, if the price was right. they do seem flimsy, but i've got a 3.5 abs hot shot that's prolly 10 yrs. old, still holding up well to the abuse.
