We got it late July. Use it some - not a lot but seems to work great for price. Fast my kids say

It will run about 10-15 minutes with the battery that comes with it. With a more powerful battery it will run close to a half hour.

It should last atleast 6 mos in summer sun. It frays with wind blowing. Amazon provides excellent warranty support

Maybe 15 or 20 minutes. I can't say we really know for sure since it crashed after the 2nd or 3rd time we tried to fly it and now needs to be fixed.

yes pretty fun little boat,when you are done playing with it. just always leave the top off,and upside after playing,to let it dry out!careful with little antenna tube it is fragile !charge the battery using a timer,to avoid burning it up! set timer to about hour and a half!

I don't know, but it didn't last a year. Not a good choice if you leave your boat out year round.

10 - 15 minutes, depending on wind or water current - plenty of time for a good run

I have not had any problems so far. We have had it on the boat several times already and so far so good.

With no moving parts, it is totally quiet in either of the 3 modes. Have used one for the last 17 years (same, but different brand) on our 26ft. boat. Great when you don't have shore power and don't want to eat up a battery (which they do - a deep cycle battery will only last one day without charging. I use a 1 1/2 gal.( 8lb.) tank mounted up on our bridge. These units will consume .5 lbs. of propane every 24 hrs. Thus, the 8 lb. tank will last 16 straight days. A 20 lb. tank (5 gal) will last up to 40 days.

Three hours. Seriously. My daughter dropped it about a foot into the boat and the plastic strap holder broke making it useless.

While my son loves this ship, I must admit the battery life is short .. I'd say 1/2 hour of use. It is best to charge it over night. It takes awhile to fully charge.

There is a factory installed battery that is supposed to last ten years. I installed one on my last boat and it is still going after twelve years.

I'm sure the boat would be fine, but the oars are another issue. They are cheaply made so I would be sure to get longer/better quality oars for the trip. Have fun!

This is totally ready to run, it does have reverse but with the rudders behind the prop the steering in reverse is limited as is true with any similar designed boat. It comes with a charger, and a 7 volt battery pack. The battery runs about 20-40 minutes depending on usage. You will need AA battery's for the controller. Its got twin motors but they are not controlled independently with the included controller. The boat is really well designed. For the price its s killer deal. I mounted a go pro on it and use it as a camera boat for our model ship club fun floats.

I never have. My boat runs about 50 mph. I don't think I would want to try going that fast with it up. But maybe 25 mph I believe it would hold up.

not sure. I bet if it was washed and clean of debris, it could last a while. go for it.
