Fun boat and stringent one design rules for level racing
Easy to assemble and contains good instructions.
This is my second DF65. Unfortunately one tiny piece was missing... the jib tack hook. -
Best RC Sailboat that Fits in a Car
Well this one is a no-brainer. Look around the web and you'll see why this boat is so popular. This is a top quality racing sailboat with plenty of after sales support, you will not be disappointed. I had my boat shipped from Toronto to Tucson and I had it hand in just a few days. Rchobbiesoutlet is great to deal with. They answered my question immediately and I placed my order online without problems. Buy with confidence.
