One of the best budget RC boats
This is one of the best budget RC boats I had.PROS:-------The speed is impressive, great fun with it, the remote control with two levers is sooooo much better than the one with vertical wheel (steering comes natural), the top lid is sealed well (there will always be some water getting inside, but this boat is quite waterproof), the range is impressive, and the low battery warning is very handy (around one minute to bring the boat back to the shore).It also looks quite well made for such price.CONS:-------The cons are minor, mostly it is the battery lasting barely ten minutes, but it's like that with all this type of boats so no point crying over that now (10 minutes is actually a good result comparing it to similar boats).Also, after the third use the battery went completely dead and doesn't charge anymore, but THE AFTER SALE SERVICE IS GREAT and it was all solved in a professional manner.The other cons are the clips on the sides of the lid - they are helpful to keep the boat sealed, but they are pain to open the lid and eventually they must crack. To avoid it one must squeeze the lid and pull aside the the body of the boat. It's very easy to damage the lid when opening it the first time, especially you don't know how to position the lock on the top of the lid (it should be directed to any side of the boat).The other thing that created some confusion at the start is the battery level showing on the remote control - it is battery level of the boat, not of the remote control, and it shows low until the boat is activated, which happens when the boat touches the water. I was replacing remote control's batteries a few times wondering why do they show empty when I know they are fully charged.So maybe a boat icon or a separate indicator for the remote control's battery level would be very handy on the display.Overall, it is nice, decent product. If it wasn't for the battery, I'd give 5 stars.

Do not waste your time and money
first one didn’t work. Sent it back. Now had a replacement boat..... doesn’t work eitherThe battery has been fully charged.... put the boat in water, the controller synced in no time.... however the boat doesn’t work, the controller states the boat has no battery WHEN ITS BEEN FULLY CHARGED.The battery is also incredibly hot and hard to touch to remove it. The battery has been connected correctly (I’m an electrician I know what I am doing) so it isn’t user error.By far this is the worst product I’ve ever bought on Amazon.Will be returning with immediate affect. Getting a replacement by another company.

Lovely boat, but manufacturing issue!
This boat appears to currently have a manufacturing default. The rudder servo moves fully to the left but only partially to the right. At first I bought this boat from another supplier as thought this was a one off. I have requested a return on that boat but in the meantime ordered this same boat from this supplier. This boat has exactly the same issue with the servo only partially moving to the right and fully to the left.I’m waiting a response from seller.
