Default 1/12 Hydro video

Started to put this in the Videos section, but it's not crawling so it's OFF TOPIC.

This is a 1/12 scale Pro Boat Miss LLumar hydro.

Pretty cool lil' boat.

right click, save as.

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.

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.
