My Feedback: (10)

Received a Fairwind 900 for Xmas. I've been a plane RC're.. but this will be my first RC sailboat. I live on a lake so it should be fun with little travel. Any tips you guys have on building her. Sailing it shouldn't be to big a problem.....being I've sailed most of my life. I noticed it did mention ballast. What kind should I use and how much is needed. Also... how would establish the waterline if I were to paint the hull. Any tips , hints and or pics would be appreciated. Thanking you all in advance.
