Looking at getting a cheap rc boat if anyone has any suggestions! Going on the Norfolk broads in couple of months and be rude not to have a blast !!

if it doesnt need to be powered i find yaught's are good fun and cheap to run, some double a batteries to power a receiver and 2 servos one for rudder and one for retracting and letting the sails out to catch wind, no esc or motor so cheaper and you also get to yell "make way for sail" 😛
edit: depending where ur sailing it, always have a back up boat like a rescue tug to bring it back, and watch out for algae that can stop a 550 motor on a rescue tug easy by just building up on the prop, nasty stringy surface algae 🙂
if the surface looks clear your probably good but if there is a layer of algae on top dont do it that stuff goes deeper than u think 😛
