Can anyone give a review on this boat, is it a toy or a serious hobby sailor?

Hello, from Veracruz, México
1.- It is not a toy, but a very functional model
2.- Good looking at sail,but small
3.- Must avoid hard wind, because the sail are joined to the mast by some wire hooks
4.- need a sail servo
5.- the mast is made of thin aluminium, never bend it, is going to broken
6.- Very good for small pond or swimming poll
7.- Not for beginners

Best Regards

Better buy a MicroMagic from Graupner, it sails much better in rough weather. The BMW is only good in calm conditions, just a small blow and she lies flat on the water. The hatches are not very waterproof. I sold my boat.
