Description

Everything works Beautiful handmade quality racing t37 sailboat from modelsailboats. It’s $1600 for a built t37 (when putting in an order form to build, that’s if they have time to build) I’m asking $600 comes with racing remote controller. Comes with stand From their website Fast, powerful, affordable - and fun to build. 37 inches long, 5 feet high, total weight 4 lb., ballast casting 2 lb. The hull is very light and strong, built from 1/8 inch mahogany plywood. The mast removes in less than one minute for easy transport. Out on a lake or on the Sound the T37 excels in all winds. 20 mph gusts make the the T37 an exciting experience to sail. She may be surfing the waves, but she still controls perfectly. It's almost calm, and the T37 glides off mysteriously across a smooth lake. The second finished T37 we shipped to East Patchogue, NY, just in time for a vacation in the Florida Keys. The new owner raced her against his 4 other RC boats. He reported back, "It put my other boats to shame, even my big 60 inch boat, it just sailed right past. I thought on the first day it was because it was light air. The second day was blowing like heck and your boat still left all my other boats behind. Unbelievable. I love the way it balances- I love everything!" We are just shipping a second boat to East Patchogue, "My family said I had to get a second one so they could race." Not only is the T37 a fast RC Sailboat, it is also a beautiful RC sailboat. Not just another plastic RC sailboat, the T37 has all of the traditional beauty of a wooden yacht. Not only is the wood more special than plastic, it is also lighter in weight and quite a bit stronger and more durable than many of the plastic composites that are being used for rc sailboats. Plastic is roughly 60 - 64 pounds per cubic foot, while wood is only half that weight, the wood in the T37 is about 32 pounds per cubic foot. With plastic it is hard to make the boat's hull thin enough to be light, and yet still strong enough, for instance, not to crack when the keel hits a rocky shoal at high speeds. With wood, strength and light weight go together. We sail our T37 rc sailboats hard. We sail in winds up to and even over 25 miles per hour. We have hit rock jetties at full speed, with nothing more than a few small dings as a result. I can even stand on a T37 hull and not crack it, and yet the T37 sailboat with all of the rc sailing gear installed, including batteries, still only weighs barely 5 pounds. The T37 rc sailboat kit is designed so that almost anyone can be successful building their own boat. We have had over 1800 of these beautiful rc sailboats built now by people all over the world. Many people have built two or more of the T37's so they can sail them together and race them. One family in Maine built six of the T37 rc sailboats. An owner in Thailand built his first T37 rc sailboat and right away ordered a second. Then his neighbors on each side ordered boats to race with him on the lake in front of their houses. There is very little that is so pleasing as the time-honored beauty of gorgeous wood and sparkling water blended in the form of a graceful wooden yacht racing across the waves. And the pleasure is all the more in knowing that you have built the boat yourself and created something beautiful and lasting. As one T37 owner put it when he called up to order his boat, having looked at all the plastic boats available on the internet, "I couldn't see passing a plastic boat on to my grandson."
