Default RE: Please tell us your methods for boat retrieval???

Hell-o Everyone, and G'day, [sm=shades_smile.gif] we in the U.S.A. use two or three ways to get our boats back, some have retrive boats, others have rc-electrics, and others have tennis balls. Now let me interduce you to DARTS, yes, Darts, take a broom stick handle, and cut off 4 to 5 inches. next take and OLD rubber ISO pad and round off one end and screw the other end into the cut-off handle, next devide the cut off into 3, this will be for the 3 - 1/4 x 5" dowels that you will drill into the broom handle at an angle of 30 to 40 degrees. almost done...... glue and paint...add eyelet for fishing line at the bottom with swibble....short rod gives you more control..casting average is 50 to 70 yards..thank you..
