Good First Boat for Young Begineer

[John Pelchat]

My 11 yr old is thinking about buying a Pro Boat Shockwave 26 EP RTR
Elec RC Boat. Its his own (earned) money but I am interested in
opinions whether this is a good option for him.

This will be his first boat and he is looking for a boat that is
essentially ready-to-go out of the box. He obviously looking for more
boat than what he would find at Toys R' Us.

Is the electric Shockwave a good beginner's boat?

Are there better priced alternatives?

Check your local rc boating club. Some members may have used equipment,
others will have advice and will know what is available in the area.
