I purchased this from the UK after seeing one in a members showroom .
It was one of those moments when I saw it ,like ohh yeah I even made a comment in his showroom and meant to look into these further well here is the result of looking into these closer.
These boats come from Rapid Models in the UK they are all hand made and you can see its been built by a craftsman details like grub screws built into the Alloy motor cage at the rear so it can be all pulled apart ,the boat itself is fibreglass the seat platfrom come out or simply lifts to gain access to the inner workings .The boat has been decaled and a clear coats of gloss applied.
This is not RTR its getting there with the motor to still buy as well as the batteries it will be powered by a Turnigy Outrunner,Brushless 80A 80amp ESC + BEC Speed Controller
and a 3 Bladed Pusher Prop.
Its 700 Long x 300 Wide.
The seller even sent it with a manila folder with detailed how to instructions and great glossy pics..
All in all its going to go great in the local big dam .
I had a small one as a kid and it was unreal .
White was his only colour left I would have preffered red but white does look nice.
Thanks for looking.

Looks like it will be a real blast, does need a driver if the balance works...

Great looking craft, what scale? 1/6? Is it me or would the front (cartoon depiction) decal look ok around the other way?
