Here's a fuzzy shot of a replica INXS Apache. I took this photo the day I bought mine, this is the model builders personal RC boat. He also builds Cats, you can see an uncompleted one in the upper left:

HyperBaja,
Yeah, I wish those were quickdraw's, but at $900 a piece, for a quickdraw without clutch... not yet...
I wish I had an action picture, but I don't have one yet. I've only had the boat in the water a few times and I am still trying to get it dialed in.

I didn't do the thru-hull, the boat maker had it already done when I bought it. I'll scan a picture of what I started with:

My boat-maker has not advertised in awhile.. he used to go by "Capricorn Boats". He now goes by "Radio Controlled Sports and Hobbies", Woodbridge, Ontario Canada, 905-850-9389. (Toronto)

Oh yeah.. he also makes the replica #6 drives, I think he gets $125 a piece for those, cable type drive. He makes the liquid cooled parts, stocks big bore carbs and all the goodies, pretty much for all engine makes.
