Hmmm...three good hydros really. Let me try to break this down as honestly as I can.

"1"= best, "3"= worse (keep in mind , considering we are comparing 3 good boats, "3" sitll isn't bad, just not as good as the other 2!)

Thunderbolt - Insane Gen3 - Seaducer

Price: 1 2 3
Hull Durability: 3 1 2
Customer Service: 2 1 3
Rough Water Handling: 3 1 2
All Out Speed: 1 3 2
Ease of Assembly (in shop): 3 2 1
Ease of dialing-in: 1 2 3


That's my honest feedback on these three great hydros based on my personal experience. If I missed anything let me know. :)

My answer was in reply to the 3 hydros he mentioned only. :) Whiplash is definitely a great boat!

You can get it in wood kit or fiberglass if you don't feel comfortable building a kit.

Was speaking the GV, which is a prefab Glass hull.

The Woodie is another animal entirely ;)
