RC Boating Continued
This is a video of the 22" scratch built boat that I made recently. It has improved speed due to better CG location. Now it's able to plane better and I also added a bigger prop. Unfortunately it has suffered the consequences of not being built properly. I didn't know the type of punishment a boat went trough while riding on water. it's seems that the action of hitting the water has split the sides on several parts. Although this could be fixed it doesn't make sense to fix it anymore. It will keep breaking and more weight will be added. So I am building another one. Good thing is that this one I will document on here and will update with building pictures and info. I hope to also give away the plans on pdf format if anybody is interested on building this boat. So stay tuned.

Dan, I have been building airplanes, electric foamies, and would like to begin boating as well. I ran across your video and would like to attempt a similar project. Do you have any more info you can share about this particular built? Plans, pictures, etc? Please email me at jwilhite01@gmail.com
