Default VR-1 Advice.

Hi Guy's

I have just bought my first Velocity and decided on the VR-1.

Any tips or advice (of any aspect) regarding this model?

Cheers.

take you time and learn the boat , they can be fast and they can be a hand full if you don't know what you are doing. they are fun boats to drive once you get the hang of it
