What do people think are the best RTR Electric boats out there. I have
been looking at a boat like the Traxxas Villain. Any comments?

If you're in the market for a Villain make sure to eyeball the new 14v
version; much improved and with a sealed radio box.

It was unveiled at the Chicago show earlier this year.

refer to http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~atong/
and scroll down to "Boats, Yachts, Submarines, Warship Combat and Nautical
reviews" for links many suggested types and brands.
Scroll down to other sections to check out Motors, ESC, Radio Control
systems and how to make your own GRP hulls etc.
IMO the Academy electric power boats represent best $ value in ARTR.
