You're in luck. I've been doing a review on the nitro version and hope to have it on the water later this week. See: http://www.radiocontrolzone.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=105821
So far, in my opinion, the Grey Thunder is a nice boat for the price with a lot of features that I personally like.

i'm leanin towards the Graupner because it has the option for the dual props and the CEN doesn't, but CEN has a glow and electric and Graupner only has electric (1-2 motor dependin on if its single or dual prop) its like a trade off, you get one or the other, lol

with all i have read the single ios better. with dual supposadly there is a ton of pain in gettin gthe setup to work properly.
also look at the el vee. it is a graupner hull that is extremely effective and can be highly modified.

A single is a much better/more simple option. I have the grey Thunder in nitro on sale. You can check them out at www.offshoreelectrics.com
