Aquacraft VS1 Tunnel Hull

If you haven’t ever seen a tunnel hull race whether full scale or even RC, it is a sight to behold. With rooster tails streaming from behind the outboards, the screams of the engines whining down the straights and the excitement of the races, this RC model is built for these thrills. Aquacraft worked with designer Mike “Grimracer” Zaborowski who developed an earlier prototype and kit of the VS1 and then Aquacraft is bringing to you a Almost-ready-to-run version which they claim needs only 6 to 8 hours to have it ready for action.
