" For Sale" Aquacraft RIO 51 RC Boat

I bought this last summer, but have since bought my Check, so I don't use it anymore. Its 51" long and runs on a water cooled 29cc weed wacker motor. So it just uses normal 2 cycle mixed fuel, no expensive nitro. And a tank of fuel lasts about 20 minutes. Since I bought it I have painted the engine compartment and put a new header on it. I still have the original box and it comes with everything needed to run minus fuel. Asking $375 plus the ride, they are $700 new. Will arrange meeting up if you're close enough.

Yeah, its definatly a fountain inspired design. It really is fun, and if I had a bigger boat I would take it out to the party cove with me over the summer. But I don't and daddy needs new gauges.... So its gotta go.
 
Would also be willing to take parts on trade. Looking for a prop, stereo stuff, or anything to make my boat faster!!! lol

I'll have to do some research. I've never heard of those, but I am also new to all this. But the 24" I have right now is not enough, so I don't know how well this will work. But let me talk ot some people that know way more about this than me. Thanks!!
 
what prop are you running? The SpeedZone is a copy of the Tempest, just a little faster, holds better in turns, and can run a little higher on the transom. I sold one just like this to a guy for a 2100 Pulsare with a 225promax, ran 77.1 on gps. boatman
 
Right now its what came with the boat. A 24" Dominator 4 blade. I believe its around 13.5 diameter. I know its not what I need. Last time I had the boat out I was tuning well over 6200 rpm with my 2.4 200 bridgeport. I know that I need to be around 5800-6000. But it could be because I'm running a junk prop. I just know what I have researched on here what other guys with similar set ups to mine are running, and they seem to be in the 25" area.
