A rescue boat is my plan for this hull not that I know it will not become a screamer without a biggrer motor. The power platform is totally self-contained and lifts right off, so I can design a new hull and set this in. Ready to use with out much effort.
Try upping the batt next. A lith should push that motor better. stock is 7 cell Ni-MH AA 1300mAh 8.4 V in think. Fully charged is 10.3 -10.4 V so you might be able to do 2 cell 1300 mah LiPo which is 8.4V fully charged but LiPo will drive it harder depending on the C rating.
Google "battery for wild hawk" for blogs to find batt upgrade. Enjoy :-)
Improved, but needs a brushless motor / lipo combo to really get some speed....

Now it will have the lack of resistance that will let it be able to tow as a tug boat.
Before it would have be a little weak to bring in a 2nd boat.

That's a heck of a lot faster! Success!
