| OK, I've got a question. I've always wondered this about RC watercraft. What happens when it runs out of fuel/power? Do you swim out to get it or what? |

As a rule I make sure the wind is blowing towards shore so if it dies the wind will help it drift to shore. I've swam for them before, but a tennis ball and a fishing pole works real well. Cast past the boat and snag the boat with the ball and reel it in. Another option is a pusher boat...electric. Yesterday I took a lil' $50 Wal-Mart hovercraft and pushed the boat back to shore with that. The Zig-Zags with the screw on bouy bumper would work better as a pusher rig. Of course another option is to have a real boat or jet-ski available. Last edited by JasonInAugusta; 04-24-2005 at 07:53 AM. |

How well do they turn to the right compared to the left. I've noticed a fin on the on the right side sponson only. This was a question that kept me from buying one.
