Nope, I think this board has had enough he said she said BS ! I bought the boat "as is" and alrady planned on changing them. If I wanted a warranty I would have dished out 400k + and Cigarette would have been happy to do so !!! I do hope Marc and Chris can resolve the differences though, I think they are both good guys !

Of course you still should upgrade to XR's. Even those will be at there limit with the existing power you have in the boat now
