Maybe you need to ask this in the Gas and Nitro Forum

Your question is confusing. Are you looking for a Nitro or Gasoline powered boat? These are 2 different animals.

Sorry, about the confusion I was looking at Nitro but never changed the original post to Gasolene. I am looking for a small gasolene powered boat for my pond that is because I hear that they are more reliable and less headaches to deal with.Thanks

OK, I think that I answered this elsewhere. Anyway, the pond that you have can handle most Gas boats, our race courses aren't much larger. An IMPBA approved course is 330' long with 35' radius turns. Your limit is just how much you want to spend. For playing around, look at places like eBay for a good used boat.
