Technical Performance
The UDI RC Inkfish Pro Cabin Outer Cover is engineered to exacting standards that match the premium quality found throughout the Inkfish Pro jet boat range. Manufactured from robust polymer materials, this cabin cover provides superior protection against water penetration whilst remaining lightweight to preserve your RC jet boat's optimal weight distribution and hydrodynamic performance. The cover's dimensional design perfectly accommodates the 362mm jet boat's cabin structure, ensuring complete coverage of vulnerable areas whilst maintaining the sleek, streamlined profile that makes the Inkfish Pro such an effective performer in water. The material composition resists both freshwater and saltwater environments, making this part equally suitable for use at inland waterways or coastal locations throughout the UK. UV-stabilised polymers prevent colour fading and material embrittlement, so your cabin cover remains flexible, responsive, and protective through many seasons of RC boating adventures. The engineering prioritises durability without adding unnecessary weight, allowing your Inkfish Pro to maintain its impressive performance characteristics whilst benefiting from enhanced protection against the inevitable minor impacts and water exposure that come with active RC jet boat operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this cabin cover compatible with both the standard Inkfish and Inkfish Pro models? — This cover is specifically engineered for the UDI023PRO (Inkfish Pro) model. Whilst it may fit the standard UDI023 Inkfish, UDI RC manufactures a separate part (UDI023-03A) specifically for the standard model. We recommend verifying compatibility with your exact model before ordering to ensure perfect fitment and protection.
- Will this cabin cover protect my electronics from water damage? — Yes, the cabin outer cover is designed specifically to prevent water ingress into the cabin area where critical electronics are housed. However, this cover alone does not provide waterproof electronics. For complete waterproofing, you should ensure all internal electronics are also properly sealed. The cover works as the first line of defence against splashes and water spray encountered during normal operation.
- How often will I need to replace my cabin cover? — With proper care and storage, a cabin cover can last through many seasons of RC jet boat operation. However, if you engage in aggressive driving, frequent crashes, or operate in harsh saltwater environments, you may need to replace the cover more frequently. Having a spare on hand ensures you're never unable to run your jet boat due to cover damage.
- Can I use this cover on other UDI RC models? — This cover is specifically designed for the 362mm Inkfish JetBoat models. Whilst UDI RC manufactures other RC vehicles including monster trucks and rock crawlers, this cabin cover will not fit those models. Only use parts specified for your exact model to ensure perfect fitment and protection.
- What's the difference between the standard Inkfish and Pro versions? — The UDI RC Inkfish Pro model features brushless motor technology, delivering superior power, efficiency, and longevity compared to the brushed motor in the standard Inkfish. The Pro version offers enhanced performance characteristics and faster speeds. Both models share the same 362mm hull length but have slightly different specifications, which is why separate cabin covers (UDI023-03A for standard, UDI023PRO-03A for Pro) are offered.
- Can I paint or customise this cabin cover? — The cover comes in standard factory finish. Whilst you could potentially paint it with RC-specific paints or markers, we recommend testing any paint or adhesive on a small area first to ensure it doesn't damage the polymer material or cause unwanted reactions.
