    Where to buy big big boat hull?

    Hi guys, I've been playing a little with boats recently. Have some queries.
    Reason is cos of my lousy beginner experiences.
    I have a Kyosho twin storm and a Traxxas Villain Ex, and recently a aquacraft reef racer2.

    i have:
    1. capsized traxxas villain ex by reversing
    - killed the stock esc and receiver
    2. villain ex got knocked over by a wave in siloso lagoon
    - killed the receiver
    3. twin storm water tubing got loose and flooded receiver compartment with water
    - killed the receiver
    - had to swim out 30m into bedok reservoir to get the boat before it sank

    so now i have a big phobia of flipping and capsizing boats.
    Would like to find a boat that is:

    1. Self righting
    2. Fairly big, something bigger than the twin storm at 900mm would be good
    3. Electric
    4. Hull type not so important, but I like deep vees and cats
    5. Not too expensive---rtr or artr also can

    anyone know where to find one?
    thx!!

          Buy my boat???

          Electric boats are fully sealed so it will never sink.


          How big are u looking at??? Big boat = big money for it to go fast also.

                        Hmm.I see something intersesting comming up.

                        It all depends on the individual. Some like speed, cos it gives you the thrill.But you do need some skill to control that speed, otherwise you end up like me.
                        Some like, sail boats cos it needs some degree of skill to manouvre the boat with the wind and it's elegant. Some like scale boats cos of the details. End of the day you pick what you like and just go with it, that's how you enjoy the hobby.

                        Or be like me, get a speed boat for the thrill, build a towboat to retrive it(you need some skill there) and finaly, build a scale boat to enjoy.

                        Cheers

                          Hi huasze

                          You can try Johor baru (Malaysia - hobby shop), they sell big fiberglass boat cheap. Location: heading toward jasco old causeway on your right hand supermarket (sharp eye to spot).

                          You can also try getting it from thailand when you visit there. Bangkok especailly they have bigger hull for nitro/Gas engine.

                          Ebay, alibaba you may able to get someting you like too...

                          Hope you find what you like
