Default Right Size RC Boats For Pond

Hello Everyone,

I live at a veterans home and we have decided to put one of our ponds
to use as a place to hold electric rc boat races, and other events.

Electric Boats Only

We're starting out fresh except for all the info I read on About.com.
The question I want to ask relates to the size of our pond but I am
not exactly sure of the size. I'll just say it is a decent size pond maybe
100 ft. wide and 250 ft. long with an 12 ft. diameter island off to one
side.

What would be the best scale of boats for this size pond? Right now
we want to use them right out of the box. Maybe assemble some over
the winter.

Lots of our guys and gals are in wheelchairs and scooters. The right size
boats to buy are my first concern. Where to buy them is another. We do
have a budget and would like to deal with one company to handle all our
needs. Local to Sandusky, Ohio would be great, but not necessary.

I will certainly be pleased with any suggestions to help our club get started.

Thank you,

Doug Davis
