It must be my turn. This is so embarrassing.
Hi my name is Graham, 'Hi Graham', I have been addicted to model boats for as long as I can remember ( sniff ).
It all started so harmlessly with scale boats but soon progressed to hard core nitro, gas and now FE, I just can't get enough.
I blame the dealers like 'Slippery Steve' and Andrew 'Hitman" G for constantly tempting us with irresistable deals just when we think we have had our last boat and have promised our partner or spouse no more.
I have to confess to building boats for other guys and as president of two model boat clubs I guess this makes me a 'pusher' (sob).
Aaah what the hell, enjoy your addiction !!!!

Merry Christmas to all users of the worlds friendliest forum.

Best regards
Graham.

Hi. My name is Dominic and I started this thread. My addiction started off innocent enough. I take a trip to the pond and run a boat or two. Then It grew to three, then four, then five. I thought it would stop. Then I started reading these forums more and more. Before you knew it, I started looking for sales on parts. Then hulls for those parts. I couldn't pass by a hobby shop without looking to see if they had boats or parts or parts to make parts. I had to quit drinking to support my boat habit. I keep a boat underneath my pillow, maybe that's why I can't sleep at night. Fast Electric Jones. I got a fast electric jones.

What a bunch of loosers. LOL

ROFL Too funny guys!!!!!

I was actually perfectly fine doing my scale and somewhat fast electrics with a local club.
Then I did something REALLY STUPID.
I went to the time trials in Valdosta, FE-ll. There I met some of the fastest guys on the planet. Ray, Brian, Chris, Ron, Jay, Jim, Steve, Jerry. These guys sucked me right in, yes I blame them. They knew they were contagious, and they are the reason I am so sick right now.
If they cared, they would have kicked me to the curb. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOO,
I asked questions, they gave answers, can I take a picture of your boats??? "Sure go ahead" They knew EXACTLY what they were doing!!!!
They knew that I would hear their boats S C R E A M I N G down the straightaways on the 4 hr. drive home, and on into the ENTIRE WEEK that followed.
The next thing I knew, I picked a class and was planning a SAWs build. I sold stuff to buy stuff.
I went to the next SAWs event with my little mono that I worked so hard on and obsessed over. Then it was me, ME with my pants down around my ankles so the whole world could see my. I thought that I could get it out of my system, but NO, NO, it is WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY bigger than me. I am so weak!
I wasn't happy with one record and one SAWs boat. NO, I WANTED MORE, STILL DO!!!! The rush, the shaking hands, the weak knees.

HELLO!!!, I'M OUT OF IMAGES HERE!!!, CAN A GUY GET SOME MORE IMAGES???

So I'm still THINKING, READING, BUILDING, TESTING, TWEEKING my boats.
I struggle every day to keep my mind on work. I have to leave out of the back door, I can't leave out the basement door anymore. The boats are down there, they constantly call out to me.


HELLO!!! WHY CAN'T I HAVE SOME MORE IMAGES???

I've been to a shrink, there is no treatment for this addiction, WE ARE All SCREWED!

I have to go now, I need to finish a build on another mono, SO I CAN TEST AND TWEEK ANOTHER ONE!! YEAH!!!!!!

[Tunda]

We are all screwed sounds like we all have it bad........... My wife keeps telling me all i think about is my RC boats and this fourm..............At least i know im not the only one...........

[domwilson]

I think there are alot of people here "in the closet" about their addiction.
C'mon. You can explain. You're amongst friends.

[Eyekandyboats]

its not addiction, its life. along with other things. . so a part of life.
I don't see it as another boat, I see it as another asset i have. its fine and cool.

An' Den?????
