good sites for FE would be www.offshoreelectrics.com , www.intlwaters.com , www.rumrunnerracing.com


The UL-1 is a good boat to start out with. There are alot of guys that use the UL-1 esc/motor in other boats with good results (like the JAE Rigger).

You might want to also check out the SV27 depending on the water conditions you'll be running in mostly.


If you want to learn what you can about rc boats in general..

then www.jrcbd.com
www.modelgasboats.com
www.rcboat.com
www.rcprops.com
www.xtremercboats.com (if you can read dutch/german, or use translation site)

UL-1 is a nice hydro BUT read the different forums about setting up this hydro. Another recommedation is to buy the book Basics of Fast Electrics from Airage Inc: http://www.airagestore.com/books/boa...ric-boats.html
