Scale Models of Performance Boats
 
Does anyone remember the posts from a few months ago about the company that was in the process of doing molds of scale models of offshore performance boats? they said they would be ready for "selling" by January 2002. Also said with lots of very fine detail!! What happened to them??? Are they still working on the product?? Are they going to do V's and Cats"???

I always wanted to make a model of a dually pulling a Fountain and paint it up like mine. They have die cast models of duallys in 1/24 scale but when I asked about an offshore powerboat model kit all I got was....A What???

It may have been Bonzi (yes that's with a "B" not a "D"). They had some really neat R/C boats at the Houston show. (Even a Fountain for us beak-heads.) I have their info if anyone wants it.

Does Bonzi have a website?

Boating Fool 02-12-2002 06:07 PM

I went to Yahoo and typed in Bonzi R/C boats. It should bring it up. I forgot what it was.

My brother-in-law and 3 of our friends all bought boats from Bonzi a few yrs ago. They are awlesome. Take them a picture of your boat and they will copy it in the paint real close. They are located just a few miles N of Indianapolis. Will say that all 4 boats had many problems and the delivery dates were missed by a mile! Otherwise, look great sitting on the stands. Maybe things have changed since then.

Boating Fool 02-12-2002 11:50 PM

Go with the trailers, cause I will have to trucks to hook them up too. Plus I can pratice backing up a big rig since I don't have one! :D

Laveyman 02-13-2002 01:07 AM

To the top to foil Puder!!!

blueamerican 02-14-2002 07:32 PM

Mear Image, sorry I did not get your post, I was away. Thanks for getting back. As you can see, A lot of us "HP Boat Crazys" want and need models of "real boats". Your price range sounds good. Will you give a discount for the whole collection? Can't wait to see the final product, I will e-mail you with my information. Best of luck finishing your project, its needed, I am tired of seeing NASCAR stuff all over the place. HP BOATS need to be recognized too!!!

SpeedDoc 02-15-2002 07:38 PM

MEAR IMAGE, Recieved your e-mail...thanks. Tried to e-mail you back but had "error" problem! If possible , please e-mail a contact # and I'll call the first of the week. I'm on the east coast so please include a time to call!
Thanks, Steve
