I have been running a pro boat ul-19 (Best speed no flips 83 mph),it has acquired many stress cracks through the paint. it finally did a nose dive split the whole front wide open and it’s sunk. I did get it back a week later our lake is 8 to 10 feet deep so I got very lucky. Now that I can see the construction, wow it is super thin and the seams hardly have any surface area to stick together. Moral to the story I don’t think you can run any pro boat unless you reinforce the hull or just run it stock. my dominator (96mph no flips), my animal(116mph no clips) both carbon fiber have had many many flips and hard crashes no hull damage just electronic trys and motor mounts cracking out. Nose dives are the worst. Good luck love your videos
I bought an old pursuit that had a lot of damage. I just fibreglassed the inside of the hull and painted the outside. Perfect and must stronger now. Just have to gut the whole boat .
Hey, here’s a little bit advice. Use 10 pound Velcro on the battery and the boat and you’ll see the difference on how it holds the batteries in place you will never have that problem. That’s the way I run my 32 I was having the issue of moving forward when I was running it, but all that went away when I added, the Velcro has to be 10 pounds Velcro trust me you will love it
Paint will shrink and crack depending on what its on and the type of paint and how it was preped. If its not leaking and it doesn't bother you i would leave it as is and run it.
I have that same issue. I guess they make the boats like that. It looks like it’s cracked, but it’s not mines don’t leak. O end I loosened a couple of screws here and there and it stopped leaking inside. Sometimes we overtighten things not realizing that it will cause leakage inside

It’s definitely not paint cracking, in my opinion, I do a carbon Fiber in lay. And re paint the bottom of the hull. Great Video 👍

With 25 years of fiberglass repair experience you have cracked paint. If the resin was cracked it would flex at the crack. 👍good videos keep it up.
The longest 30 second video ever
Crack kills

Carbon inlay it.
It'll be fine!
Slap in an inlay and put more power to it!
Yup I got same with that there is a crack but I fix it!
Horizon fiberglass boats are not reinforced
did you smoke it up?
Nope.
SCBG4L
Stuff the bow full of jam foam softens the blow form sudden stops and works as floatation
plastic boats don't last
It's fiberglass
It's fiberglass...🤦♂️
@H2oMechanic2RC I stand corrected! I thought it was like the sonic wake I have...like everyone is saying inlay good to go
