How are you at building from a wood kit? Zippkits R/C Boats! has some nice kits that are cheap. It would cost you probably as much for the wood as it would to get the kit.
A Kyosho Jet Stream 10 is about as far away from a gas boat as you can get.
26cc Zenoahs are one of the best bangs for the buck for a new water-cooled engine made for boats. The best price right now for them is at Warehouse Hobbies, Warehouse Hobbies - Maximize Your R/C Experience! . You can use weedeater engines but the one of choice there is the Homelite in 25 or 30cc's. These can be upgraded later on with tuned pipes, water-cooled heads and bigger carbs.
