What do you do when you buy a new house on a river? You get an RC boat! I ordered the highly rated Pro Boat Alpha Patrol Boat right after our offer on the house was accepted and I knew we'd be living on the water. It's not the fastest boat, but it was jet powered, so I knew I could take it up the little creek and make some fun videos. The scale details on this are really fun and I knew my son would love to run it because he is a military history nut.
I'm glad I ordered it when I did because they are now discontinued. You'll have to check for them in local shops.
