    I have a sterling cris craft I've been working on on and off. I'ts
    a plastic hull with a wood frame interior, 19" long for gas or
    electric.I plan on useing a 540 motor from a R/C car with a battery
    from the same. I need some info as to what prop should be used,
    what kind of shaft to use (flex or solid) and a goodf place to look
    for all this. Any help is appreciated.
                                                  Thanks Jim

|     Both Dumas and Midwest have the requisite stuff to power
    boats. Dumas probably has the largest selection, including
    various motor and battery combinations...

    Robbe is another, though I seem to recall that they are
    mostly designed for their kits??

| 525.3 | NEED RC BOAT STUFF ? | GRANMA::WFIGANIAK | Thu Dec 15 1988 11:48 | 6 | |
|     IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR RUNNING GEAR, STUFFING BOXES,SHAFTS,
    PROPS AND SUCH, TRY OCTRA. MOST OF THEIR ADS ARE IN THE MAGS
    ON RC. I THINK ITS TWO BUCKS AND THEY WILL SEND YOU AN 
    UNBELIVABLE LIST OF WHAT THEY MAKE AND RECOMENDATIONS FOR
    USE. I ALSO BELEIVE THEY ARE MUCH CHEAPER THAN DUMAS.
