Although I've been model flying now for over twenty years, it's only recently that I've realised my long-term ambition of flying off water. It's a desire I've harboured ever since building my first trainer and one that probably stems from my earlier interest in model boats. Yes, it's true, many years ago I was a hardened model boat enthusiast with an enviable collection of yachts, cruisers and powerboats. I still believe model boating to be one of the most relaxing pastimes in the R/C model world, a fact that owes much to thernsimple pleasure of being close to water. It's hard to beat when you need to unwind, indeed if you've a particular fascination with ships and a bent for modelling, it really can be an intoxicating and very addictive pursuit.
