Also I loved watching that sailing ship, Don't get me wrong watching ones with propellers that push themselves forward is cool and all but sailing ships and old-fashioned "steamboats", really do it for me.❤

I love this video. I grew up sailing, used to teach sailing, and also built sailboats at night while attending HS. That first model was/is gorgeous. I like the idea of an RC sailboat as opposed to planes, at least for me, as there is less chance of crashing, I'm pretty much all thumbs these days, but have built and flown several RC gliders. I live on an island some 30 miles to sea, on which there are about 750 named lakes. I'm thinking it might be fun to scratch build a sailboat. Thanks for sharing this video.

Thanks Doug. I'll have to give one a go sometime soon. I've never really understood the technique for going upwind and downwind. Maybe when the warm weather returns I'll get a kit and give it a go. You should do the same 😉

Aaaaahh yes the famous boating pond in Shangri-la... Its a shame but rc boating seems to be a forgotten rc hobby. That's how I got into the hobby over 50 years ago

Very few places to do it Brian. All the ponds and lakes around our way are inaccessible. Very sad.

Great video. I have a question for you all. I'm am looking to build a boat pond. what size do you feel is adequate for something like this. I am a rc car guy, looking to open a rc park that caters to all rc lovers. Not a lot of places to run boats where i am legally .Thanks.

If at all possible because I honestly can't find the information, would you be able to tell me how to calculate how tall a mast has to be for a 1/12 scale ship that is 70 inches long, 40 inches wide, and from the main deck 14 inches Deep?

Buonasera. L'acqua è verde a causa della vegetazione intorno al lago. Sarebbe di questo colore, naturalmente, anche se fosse pulitissima o addirittura potabile. Questo accade in piccoli specchi d'acqua. In medi e grandi laghi, invece, prevalgono le tonalità dell'azzurro e del blu.
