This review is from: Pro Boat Mini-V EP RTR w/Battery and Charger: PRB3000T (Toy)
It's SO fun. It's so fun! It's very fast and the battery lasts about 30 minutes(if it's not at full speed all the time.) It only needs to charge 2 hours. If it goes out of range it just keeps going until it is back in range. The 1 down side is it takes on water if you reverse too much. Overall, it's a great RC boat!

boat is very fun. For under $100, it offers a lot. Realistic operation on the water, very flexible controller (trim control, dual rate control and reverse). Enough speed to enjoy RC boating.
Dialing down the dual rate is a great safety "trick" when allowing children to operate the boat as it won't have twitchy turning or turn too sharp.
Run time is very good at ~15 minutes per full charge.
The supplied battery charger got too hot during charging and did not fully charge the battery. I called the 800-number of the manufacturer and discussed the problem. They immediately offered to send a new charger for free and apologized for my trouble. I received an upgraded charger in just 2 days and it works fine. Unbelievably great service.

Did some searching and finally decided on this one mainly after talking with our local hobby store.... wow, what a fun boat! Goes fast, easy to use, can turn tight or wide with just a turn of dial! And it has reverse! love it! Battery last 15 mins hauling butt! Charges in 2 hours! We are picking up another boat and extra batteries! So fun! We use it out on a local pond at a park. Highly recommend it!
