Stuff going on....

I just thought I would post about some noteworthy new rc boating web sites.

Here is a web site for the first German Electric SAW event:

http://www.german-saw.de/

TideWater is back on the web:

http://www.tidewaterengineering.us/

With all that I see going on with .12 riggers maybe someone can make www.12rigger.com ! Any Voulnteers?

I was thinking of doing something along those lines once we get a site up for the Hammerhead .12. A forum for just the under .21 crowd!

On something else that I saw yesterday over on Marty's site, Cox is getting ready to come out with a hot Marine motor, no idea what size or anything yet.

Ron,

I'm not sure that mention of Cox was entirely serious.... ;D But I could be mistaken.

Hey Aussies:

Check out the prices of Macs pipes on the Tidewater site! Makes the local ones look a bit exxy!

Keep me posted on the Cox stuff, Ron.

I really wanna build an .049 rigger.

We're getting off the subject, but have you ever thought about a .12 sized Cat?

They never said as of yet what size the motor was supposed to be or if it was a hoax posting.

Hammer,

I saw an 049 rigger on the weekend, altho not running. It uses a Cox TD 049, an exhaust stub but no pipe, no carb, rudder only. The boat was very light with all homemade hardware. I am told it goes quite well. Very small and cute! ;D

Since you guys seem to be talking about "cute little riggers", I thought you might be interested in seeing this one.
