42" Blackjack 42 8S Catamaran Ready to Run (Black) (PRB08043T1)

The Blackjack 42-inch Brushless 8S Catamaran Ready-to-Run is a high-performance radio-controlled speedboat built for serious lake racing and open-water fun. It pairs a Spektrum Marine 4685 4-pole, water-cooled motor with a Spektrum Smart 160A high-voltage, water-cooled ESC to deliver up to 5.3 horsepower and speeds beyond 55 mph. The hull is crafted from impact-resistant polycarbonate, with a polycarbonate canopy secured by aluminum thumb screws for a watertight seal and quick access to the internals. An aluminum rudder and propeller strut reinforce rigidity and enable precise steering, while a clean molded interior keeps the layout tidy and maintenance-friendly. A Spektrum DX3 transmitter and waterproof SR6110AT 6-channel telemetry receiver, combined with the Smart system, provide reliable control and real-time battery readouts for confident, high-speed runs. The Blackjack is finished in a bold black-and-orange color scheme.

Designed for easy setup and rugged operation on lakes and open-water venues, this 42-inch catamaran emphasizes durability and reliability. The wood-free interior resists rot, and the aluminum hardware delivers long-term stiffness and corrosion resistance. Water-cooled electronics and telemetry feedback help maximize performance while keeping track of battery status, enabling high-speed passes and confident handling during fast, precise turns.
