This thing rips through the water at up to 65 plus. Conditions of the water applies just like the real deal. Amazing boat. Had one issue and Proboat had new parts to me in less than a week for free. Get insurance anything can happen. It’s worth it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beast!! *by on Reviewed in the United States March 27, 2026* I haven't used mine yet, but I know its a beast ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Needs adjusting before 1st use!! *by on Reviewed in the United States November 10, 2024* Once tuned this boat is very fast and smooth. Like any high performance rc vehicle this boat needs to be tweaked before you put it in the water. It’s as about as ready to run as you can get with this type of boat.From the collet on the motor to the stuffing tube and strut. These components need to be adjusted so there is no tension from the drive shaft to the strut bearing. This tension will be noticed from hearing and feeling a massive vibration in the drive shaft with a very hot strut. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pro Boat RC Blackjack 42" 8S Brushless Catamaran RTRBattery and Charger Not Included Black/Orange PRB08043T1 - Dynamite Grease Gun with Marine Grease 5 oz DYNE4200 Miscellaneous Boat Accessories - Dynamite Clear Flexible Marine Tape 18M DYNM0102 Miscellaneous Boat Accessories --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/381115664-pro-boat-rc-blackjack-42-8s-brushless-catamaran-rtrbattery-charger](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/381115664-pro-boat-rc-blackjack-42-8s-brushless-catamaran-rtrbattery-charger) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
