Radio controlled boats are a very popular toy around the world.
RC (radio controlled) construction is even seen as a hobby and taken very seriously by many people.
Some of the craft work put into custom radio controlled sailboats and yachts is unparalleled.
What can you do to start your building your own radio controlled boats? Well, for beginners it's recommended investing in a basic electric RC boat.
Don't waste too much money on something you don't whether you will enjoy or not.
If you don't regularly (or can't) visit the lake then there's not much point in investing in any of these products.
There are some pretty cool 'do-it-yourself' kits available at most online stores that give you all the pieces and the instructions on putting it all together.
These kits are nothing new, I remember having one over ten years ago.
It's just as fun now as it was then.
You can really specialize with your hobby by focusing only on sailboats, yachts, submarines and battleships.
There are organizations and tournaments (races) for whichever style of radio controlled boat your into.
It's definitely worth browsing online for some ideas, don't be too hasty on selecting a kit.
Put in the thought and decide if you really do have the time for this.
I know I have wasted a ridiculous amount of time on unfinished projects.
You start with a huge amount of enthusiasm, unfortunately overtime it can really drain away if you're not passionate about something.
Folks, make sure you really want to take up a hobby before wasting money.
