Boat basically is brand new it’s never been in the water I thoroughly checked it out. I did not take off the top hatch/top part of the boat, but looking at all the fasteners and the shafts and propellers everything looks brand new it has never been submerged. It looks like it’s been handled a bunch in and out of boxes unfortunately, no controller. I’m sure you can find a controller online for these. I saw a video of these things running around the pond and they look like a lot of Fun. Found. This is the price just right these RC ships are very expensive and this will get you halfway there
