Default FS: Traxxas Villain Boat

I decided to sell one of my Villains. I picked it up thinking the fiancé would take to it but not so much. This is the EX with the EVX esc. It's in good running order and the hull has only very minor surface scratches. I'd does however have some yellowing

The transmitter is a hpi 27MHz and the receiver is the stock traxxas one.

*The inside is a little dirty underneath the motors. I picked it up used and have oiled the u joints, motor bushing, shafts and other moving parts after every run.

A little water gets in after long runs but it's most likely from a worn gasket or it comes over the sides under the deck lid.

I will include one of the two decklid shown. One is in pretty good shape but had some yellowing. The other is from a villain IV and will need to be worked on to fit well. It also has a lot of yellowing.

The pvc stand is not included. I can include the traxxas stand.

My price depends upon which deck lid you get.

This will make a great rescue craft.

The Villain with the better deck lid is $155 and $125 with the Villain IV deck lid. Local is preferred but I will ship. Shipping will be between $15-$25 depending on where you are.

Here are some pictures:

I think it is but I'm biased. It's not very fast relative to brushless boats but it's very maneuverable due to its twin steerable outdrives. There a few that have been converted to brushless and are 40-50 mph boats.

They do retain their value fairly well
