Am relatively new to Dumas and RC products. Is Mack Marine Products a good place to purchase from?

Most of their products seem fairly overpriced, but I've heard good things about their service.

Bought a Dumas 1273 Commuter from them today. Best price I could find on the internet. They will ship out tomorrow. Thanks for input.

I hope you bought one of their hardware kits. Dumas hardware is fairly mediocre, wouldn't use it again.

I don't know about anyone else but I do speak from experience when it comes to using Dumas hardware. I built two Dumas hydroplane kits, used another for templates and am building that one as well. What I learned on the first two is that Dumas hardware, at least in that application, was junk. I destroyed two rudders and bent the crap out of a strut due to the cheap materials they were made from. I've used Speedmaster, Aeromarine and a few other brands and never had an issue with any of it.
