RC boats come is a wide variety of styles ranging from small and leisurely to fast and furious. Remote Control boats are popular with all ages and skill set. The extreme RC boat hobbyist seems to lean towards speed racers, while the avid collector likes to build and design his own sailboats and pleasure cruisers.

The fascination with Remote Control boats is not only the ability to sail across water, but also the time consuming assembly process. RC boat hobbyists take much pride in building their boats and entering them in competitions. Many race in tournaments hoping to receive a trophy or ribbon that they can be proud of. Remote Control boat kits come in three different models for each different level of skill: ARR boat kits, builder's kits, and RTR boat kits.

ARR boat kits are the almost ready to sail RC boat kits which require only partial assembly. The Kyosho Bluestreak 800 Nitro RC Speed Boat is and ARR that only needs the motor and power source to be installed before it is put out to sea. Builder's kits are for the advanced RC boat hobbyist. They require complete assembly of all parts with special tools required to put them together correctly. The ready to ride boats, RTR boats, involve no assembly at all. This type of RC boat is highly recommended for beginners as all you need to do is charge the power source and add water.

So when choosing a Remote Control boat, regardless of your experience in boating, there is a boat out there just to fit your personality. You have a choice between an electric powered RC boat and one that runs by gasoline. The petrol powered boat will run for longer lengths of time. Both the electric and petrol powered RC boats go about the same speeds, 25 to 45 miles per hour. There are Remote Control boats of lots of different types such as: vintage racers, sailboats, pleasure yachts and cruise ships, warships, tugboats, and fishing vessels.

Once you have purchased your own RC boat all you will need is a clear sunny day, wind in your sails, and a nice tranquil body of water. You and your family or friends can enjoy hours of entertainment sailing or racing a RC boat.
