My son got this for his birthday. He loves it. This boat goes faster than I expected and he got to play with it quite some time before the battery died. It also comes with 2 batteries so u can charge them both up Pop one out and pop the other back in for more fun. This boat is fantastic for my son he absolutely loves it. Even bystanders came to check it out. So fun for everyone.
I bought 4 of these for a lake trip for 4 grandsons age 8-3. I have bought expensive boats before and they would break or sink almost immediately. I didn’t expect these to make it through one day. They survived the weekend which is amazing because one controller fell in the water and one boat was submerged and they kept on working. They were a huge hit!
This boat is super fun with kids! I tested this out in our pool and they had a blast. Battery life is about 20 min but you get 2, so keep them both charged. Controls are easy, typical rc controls with joysticks, forward, reverse, left, right, the boat is surprisingly quick and fast!
