G23 RC Boat needed

[Connor]

Hey everyone, to make a long story short, I am getting married next month and looking for the G23 RC boat for my grooms cake. These are available through Target (link below) but not sold online. I have been to every Target in the Austin area because the website claims they are in stock but no luck. Turns out the item # through Target is a broad number that contains the Supra RCs as well, which are at every store I go to. As a Nautique owner I would hate to have to use the Supra but will if I have to...

Any insight any of you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Also, if any of you see it at Target and buy one, I will gladly pay extra to ship it to me. Also, i have called Nautique directly and do not sell these or have any affiliation other than their name being on the toy itself. Any other ideas are welcome too. Thanks in advance!

Connor,

That's pretty rad. I will check in NY for you this weekend as I'm heading down from VT to help my parents out at the lake house, no problem helping a fellow Nautique owner out. On a side note I have a scale cat rc boat that ride handles much better then that toy but about 10X the cost.

Drove it last night after work.

Cool, didn't know that existed... I'll take a look at my local Target for you

Might have to pick one up for myself too!

I had the baby RC wakesetter for my boys when we had a Malibu.... I wish I could get it in my colors!

Good Luck, I looked at 12 targets and none of them are the G. They come shipped with 4 in a box and there 2 of each and none are the G.

I'm going to look all over DFW today, I'll grab one for you if I see it.

My wife got me one of the Liquid Force ones that I think is modeled after a Supra. It doesn't say Supra anywhere on it and it actually looks pretty close to an older 230 with optional Titan tower so you might be able to make that work if you can't find the G23. If I make it to a Target I will check for a G23 for you.

As Sac Surfer mentioned, don't expect much performance out of these. They are pretty slow but it was fun to play around with off the platform of my boat for a few minutes.

I know a few people that work in the corporate offices of Target (Downtown Minneapolis).
I will send off an email and see what I can find out. I can try and get a listing of the actual stores that have them.

The liquid force one shares the same CPU so I don't think there is a way to tell if it is in a store without looking at it on the shelf.

Y'all are awesome! Holy cow didn't know I would get this much help! If any of y'all find one just let me know and I can paypal the money or however you would prefer. As for actually using it, it is mainly for decoration on the cake (going to have the reluctant bride figurine pulling the groom away from it) and will most likely end up on a shelf in my office afterwards. The Liquid Force Supra is my second choice, and if need be I will use it. Thanks again for all of the positive feedback!

We have been looking for them in the North Atlanta suburb area for a few months now. We have yet to find any that are a G23.

Awesome idea buddy. I'll check out the Targets over by me and let you know.

Very cute. They have them in green or blue.

Lot's of target's by me say they have them, so I was going to get a bunch for all of us. I stopped at one - again that on line supposedly had them. Guess what, they did not have them. I'm done.

I would try any Target in Knoxville, TN.
