Hi fellas,

I bought a Graupner Portofino boat off Ebay last winter and pulled this motor out of it. The boat is rated to run on 8 cells, but this motor looks like a regular old 700 incognito. The labels says "RS-775VF". Was just wondering if anybody knows if this thing is a 700 and could run on 12 cells? Hopefully the pic will show up. Thanks in advance!

It's a 775, with either Neo or Fe magnets. It is what is run in Limited Sport Hydro, with 12 cells, and (typically) an X642 or so prop. You could put a brand new Neo in it for about $50.

Sorry...bad link. Here it is.

I think the VF were the older models. 12-14 cells looks good for this.
