A Model Boat is a type of model boat that is powered by a motor. This type of model boat usually features a single, double, or triple propeller and is steered by a radio-controlled system. Model Boats are most commonly operated on ponds and lakes, although there are several speciality competitions where they can be raced. Model Boats come in various sizes, from small to large, and can range from basic models, built from scratch and out of a box, to custom-built, professional-level vessels.
