Bumper Boat
tica:
Just got my Bumper Boat kit home from Modelboatbits.com, please note that if you order it from https://www.lowemodels.co.uk/bumper-boats
you will get the chance to choose between 4 colour options.
I bought the kit + motor pack. So just have to add a battery (2S 2200mA LiPo) and a receiver.
It is a simple job to assemble it, my only modification is that I gave the motor a couple drops of silicon just to fix it a bit better.
I added a 5mm red flashing LED and I'll add some more LED's in different colours when I get the time to do it.

Great boat for the kids as the bumper will most likely save the day.

They seem quite expensive to me for what is a very basic hull and a pond noodle.
If Martin will excuse me have you seen this

Hi Tug Fanatic
Thank you for the link.
May be it is from your old speedway, car racing or street racing days.
Or running MOONSHINE!!!!

It's my age!
Barbie & Ken are just far too wholesome & Action Man just looks wrong unless you can get a camouflage noodle.
The RCGroups link I gave doesn't work. Try this
