I've become interested in modeling and boats again after being away from it all for some years now. I live in Tacoma, Wa and there seems to be a lot of interest in racing and the classes of boats are just overwhelming. A month ago I thought I'd just build or buy a boat and go have some fun and try my hand at racing.
The boats available are just incredible and powering them is another world with gas, nitro, and electric.
So at this point today I've concluded that I need some help in sorting this out so I can get focused and put my funds where I can be more effective in pursuing my goal to build and race in this area or Washington State.
I really like the 1/6th Scale Hydros running gas but are they racing them in my area. Also a I see a rigger boat and a Sport 40 boat and again are they being raced in my area.
With this said I would sure appreciate advice and thoughts from folks in my area that do now what I want to do. I watched some videos of the Scale Hydroplanes and that is some really exciting racing I have to say!!
One more thing are there any active clubs around Tacoma Seattle area that get together and talk boats?

Lee
