Man, I'm getting one and pretending to wakeboard in the tub, until the winter ends here. That RC kicks a$$. I like the Nauti as well.

I don't know about the Mastercraft one. But, the Nautique is not that fast. Probably goes 5-7 mph.

I tried to take it apart to see if I could put some better engines in there and it was just not happening.

It doesn't use a rudder, it has two engines, each having thier own prop. So, when you turn, it throws one engine in reverse, or stops, and the other is still going forward.

Kind of fun to play around with though. But, when I got it I really just wanted to get it so I could supe it up and drive it beside the boat while someone is boarding. Too much trouble.

i haven't had a chance to put my xstar on the water yet but it only has one prop and a functional rudder. it's driveline is just like the real thing. i hope it goes faster than 5mph.

Still, they're pretty cool even if they don't go 5 mph Smile

They dont go fast, but they are still fun. My friend and i put a ziplock back full of water and put in in the seats, makes a nice wakesurf wake... Laughing

I remember when Dees posted his SAN. His Nautie dealer gave it to him.

WakeTech, ya i got the same question can we get these in canada?

I guess the best way to find out would be go to Wal-Mart and look for them. Where'd you guys get it from, Toy Section?
