RC Boating from South Africa

Hi everyone!

I'm Ryan, I've been RC boating since about 2012. I live Northriding which is a suburb in Gauteng in South Africa.

My first boat was a home built wooden boat, knowing nothing about RC boats at the time needless to say had a few trial and errors with burnt motors and esc's (only found out about water cooling after this hehe). I powered this boat with an airplane esc and home made outboard motor which I then later upgraded with a marine esc from hobby king and mini outboard from OSE.

After this a upgraded my hull with a fiberglass boat also from hobby king. Here are some pictures (The wooden hull is no longer in use hence no prop etc):

The homemade outboard which is also no longer in use hence no motor (prop just for example)

I'll post some more pics in the build sections.

Thanks for reading my post!
