The RC boating season is coming to an end in most parts of the country and may have ended in others. Now is the time, I like to reflect on my RC electric boats and think about the wonderful performances they have provided. I am talking about hobby grade RC electric boats even though; I know that some people enjoy toy grade RC boats as well. Hobby grade RC boats include nitro, gas, sail, and electric crafts that are a step above toy grade RC boats. While some like the smell, sounds and power of nitro RC Boats my favorites are RC electric models with proven quality and reliability. RC Electric boats are easy to maintain, relatively inexpensive and quiet. Choice options, especially with the noise reduction! Their parts and accessories are also interchangeable with RC cars for a real monetary advantage. RC Electric boats are fast with the basic models running between 15- 20mph. That’s fast enough for anyone just getting into the RC boating hobby and you can always upgrade as your skills increase on your preferred waterway, i.e., pool, lake or ocean.

This summer, I spent a lot of time running my Cen. and Traxxas RC electric boats! If you are looking for a cheap and fast hobby grade boat, then go for the Cen.! My Cen. Grey Thunder 550 EP was a pleasure to run and pleased me to the max with it’s’ “V”-hull design that busted tough waves while maintaining a consistent 20 mph. On the days that I ran my Traxxas Villain EX RC electric race boat, its performance made me realize what a true hobby quality boat I had under control. I am quite impressed with how fast, smooth and stable, this boat is and more so with it’s reliability. I truly believe, I could give some nitro boats a run and win. This RC boat has all the ingredients for exciting R/C boating adventures with its dual motors and in terms of pure performance well, the Villain EX has to be the best among all the Traxxas RC electric boats.

Yes, this boating season was electric fun and I look forward to a few more days during the fall so that I can continue to enjoy my prized RC electric boats. Check them out if you are looking for a great RC boat for yourself or to give as a holiday gift to a beginning RC boat skipper. I think you will be pleased with either choice! I can’t wait until next spring so join me with your own RC boating adventures.
