Default RE: Recovering boats with R/C boats


ORIGINAL: 785boats

I made this out of a cheap boogie board & a couple of old 550 motors. Then added a couple of ducted fans to get boats out of the weeds.
Any slab of foam will do.

All good fun.
With the boat you've got, the idea posted by Misshydro & HendricX is your best option. A tried & tested method all over the world.
Cheers.

That's a pretty cool rescue boat. You have any detailed photos showing the electronics and drive systems?
