Anyone have first hand experience with ABC model boats?In particular their
"Super Hawaii" model?
Any input is appreciated!

Hi:

A friend of mine has bought one 5 years ago. The problem is, like many ABS
made hulls, it cracks after a few years.
My friend fixed it by using fiberglass and resin from the inside of the
hull, but that makes the boat heavier.
Otherwise it's a good first boat, looks nice and handles great.
If you want a boat that lasts many years, try a fiberglass hull; its more
expensive though...

Hope that helps,

Fred
