RC sailboats

anyone here have or are interested in RC sailboats? I have some and they're fun at campground lakes.
I also run a forum that has lots of info if anyone wants to check it out just let me know. Bruce

I have a Soling 1M and a Micro Magic. The Micro Magic may find a place in our new to us Scamp 16'. When we are in Florida during the winter months I race R/C sailboats in Punta Gorda. I'm thinking of adding a Victoria to the fleet when we get back down South.
