MICRO BOAT GUIDE

BY MATT BOYD PHOTOS WALTER SIDAS

PROGRESS IS A GOOD THING. When it comes to RC, progress in microelectron- ics is a very good thing. It has spawned a new breed of cars, boats and air- planes that are smaller, faster, more reliable and more affordable, and when you’re talking about boats, you can add a healthy dose of convenience as well. More than with any other type of RC,

70 boats rely on an appropriate location; they aren’t much fun if you don’t have

minisµs

enough water! But these mini boats are

small and nimble enough to be enjoyed

in a medium-size swimming pool, so

any local duck pond or swimming hole

 

 

will have more than enough room.

 

Don’t let their size fool you, though;

 

these little guys can be fast, and they

 

handle rough water amazingly well.

 

Driving them is easier than you might

 

think; even beginners will have a blast!

 

Who would have guessed that so much

 

fun could come in such small packages?

 

As I said, progress is a good thing!
