I am looking for an R/C surfer collecting dust in your basement or shop. Anything will do including the Kyosho surfer Dud/Lisa, Board Shark or Kelly Slater new or used. I want to modify it so original electronics/motor condition are not so important. I plan to spend some time at the beach with my kids this summer and my nitro boats don't do so well in the saltwater/waves! :D

Please PM me.

Cheers, Andrew

That's a good option in a pinch that I have not seen before. I think its a Chinese knock off. I was hoping for a real Kyosho model or better yet a Kelly Slater version someone is not using and willing to part with.

Cheers, Andrew

My boardshark broke after running it for about 4 mins. Was fun while it lasted. Small plastic servo system is junk. I'm trying to mount better standard radio gear in it now. Should have it done in a few weeks.
