Tyler P.'s AC Boats Nitro Cat Conversion

This is a customers boat that we just finished. Tyler P. of California owns this AC Boats Nitro Cat built for us electric guys. Seamless, strong and fairly lightweight considering this is a 36" hull. Ran absolutely excellent with an FDM Nemesis Gold 8hp brushless motor. Run times exceeded 12 minutes at high speeds. If you have a similar hull, or anything close to it, that you would like to convert to electric, just give us a call and we'll make it fly!
