The speed boat challenge 2.0 is all about speed and maneuverability. Build the fastest, most agile water vehicle, MUST HAVE ONE OR MORE BLOCKS IN/ON THE WATER AT ALL TIMES. No modded parts. No parts that drop off to lose weight, ie fuel tanks, VTOL engines... All submissions must be submitted as successors. Please post your cruising speed in your description.
SCORING IS OUT OF 50
20 points for speed...5 for 0-150, 10 for 150-250, 15 for 250-400, 20 for 400+
20 for handling... will range 0-20 based off of the speed at which your boat can corner as well as if you can turn at max power.
10 for looks... I like a boat that has a sleek, streamlined look.
Please like so the challenge stays in the hottest section.
Deadline for submissions is June 27 *may change*

8,104 LofiTurtleOk thanks, and if possible I will use the rotators instead of modded nozzles8.9 years ago
-
5,980 hockeymdogthats how i do it.8.9 years ago
-
5,980 hockeymdogyou could put a VTOL nozzle on a rotator to keep it without mods, that would be better.8.9 years ago
-
5,980 hockeymdogOk sure, i am fine if you post it and they don't give your boat more power @Shmexysmpilot8.9 years ago
-
8,104 LofiTurtleAnd I'm on iOS so all my modded parts are taken from other people's planes, so everyone can use them, I'll even list where I got them from in the description if you want me too8.9 years ago
-
8,104 LofiTurtleOk, i won't do modded engines or any other crazy thing, but can I use VTOL nozzles with modded rotation? It doesn't change thrust output at all just makes them rotate different amounts8.9 years ago
-
5,980 hockeymdogi have built a boat the has has two VTOL, two large props, and two med engines and it is FAST, i think i will submit that. it doesn't have to be a giant block of engines.8.9 years ago
-
5,980 hockeymdog@Shmexysmpilot still no modded parts, i don't want a battle of who can get the best mods, i want a battle of who can build the best boat. Just do your best and have some fun!8.9 years ago
-
8,104 LofiTurtleI don't like to make colossal monstrosities to get the thrust, if this is like an all out version of the challenge, shouldn't we be allowed modded parts for this one?8.9 years ago
