    Follow up videos should be very interesting. I've got the chine walking and the water in the bilges too. I'd like to buy the upgrades set, but as a beginner, I'm a bit vague on how to fit the various parts. Thank you for sharing.

    I have a Enforcer Super Gator boat for 15 years. It is not a toy.
    I just bought a Spartan SR. Trailer too. Will see. The Super Gator is made out of fiberglass and have driven it in Lake Huron in 2 foot waves..

    I would buy the hull and run everything rcbb. Was going to buy a used one but got another pursuit to fix up. Love my pursuits .

      Pursuits are just such a good hull, its just a pity tfl doesnt package them like something a beginner would buy in a nice box and make them more rtr rather than needing to attach rudders and such

    Wonder if my Facebook videos sparked this purchase, since you commented on it trying to help. And you got the same color! Excited for the videos! Philip H.

      Everybody should own at least 1 spartan in their life, the challenge of getting them dialled in is part of the appeal

      @RCBoatBitz I just ordered a few things from you last night, dual sponson kit & the rudder. I'm doing some outside the box testing messing with adding Aero to the nose to push it down at high speed (created another RUclips channel just for it)

    its a plastic boat, not a great design, and basically overpowered for what it is. this is what folks buy who just want to go bash and dont know theres better options honestly. not bashing traxxas, but boats arent their thing
