Hello! My name is Mike! What questions can I answer about the Stealthwake today?
Looking for a good boat for my 10 year old son
Michael H.
How much are you looking to spend today?
i have the blackjack 29 v3
it depends on the quality
my boat is too fast for him
Michael H.
all our boats are top quality
Stealthwake would be a good choice, yes I think the Blackjack would be way too fast for someone that young
i read reviews on the recoil 17 and it seems as if people have had problems with it

Here is a brushed Cat that would also be a good choice, but not near as fast as your BJ
which would be more stable than a V design
less likely to flip over
Any other questions I can answer for you today?
what type of battery does that use and how fast does it go
