Getting Started with R/C Boats
Construction Basics
Wood, fiberglass and
plastic are the basic boat construction materials. Wood construction varies
from pre-formed panels to actual hull planking which is time-consuming to
create, but the results are beautiful and realistic. Fiberglass boats build
faster (some come with the hull and deck separate and some pre-joined) and
often have molded-in scale detail. ARF boats (Almost-Ready-to-Float) are
primarily made of durable ABS plastic with pre-joined hull and deck and come
complete with running hardware, motor and decals. They are a great way for
beginners to get launched into R/C boating quickly and affordably.
