Deep Vee Power Boats

The deep vee is a popular racing boat, available for either inboard or outboard power. The hull is "V" shaped and can cut through the water, maintaining speed in rough conditions. Although not as fast as the hydro or tunnel hull, the deep vee may be a better choice if your racing site has a lot of chop.

In the past, the glow engine has been the most popular power for racing boats, however, with the rapid growth in R/C car technology, electric power has become quite popular in smaller models giving excellent results. Large, gas powered deep vees are also becoming popular. They usually come with very little assembly necessary and operation is simple with pull recoil starters.

What you need in addition to the boat kit will depend on the type of boat it is and the amount of prefabrication that has been done. Generally you will require a two channel radio (on a surface frequency), a motor appropriate to the model, running hardware, and if electric, a battery pack and charger. Electric set-ups for racing boats are usually very similar to R/C cars and you can find more information on the required support equipment in our Introduction to R/C Cars. If you choose a glow powered boat, you will also require field support equipment for starting the engine
