Hi all,<br><br>Our 7 new V32's are either in or coming in. We are in Erie, PA where all the water is frozen. My question is has anyone sailed theirs in a pool ...
Rick,<br><br>Somewhere on the net is a series of photos where a US1M club held races on a indoor swimming pool with large fans. I don't recall where those ...
Todd,<br><br>Actually the Rule 3.2 question has been being kicked around locally for the past week or two. The bottom line is that George Dornis, with my ...
Couple of points and observations:<br><br>(1) Moving the battery forward does NOT bring the transom above water. Never, not in any V-32, period!<br><br>(2) I...
Hello everyone! <br>I thought that I would send out this email to the currently registered V-32 owners to introduce myself as the new V-32 Class Secretary....
Hello V-32 Skippers!<br> <br>Just a quick note to bring you up to date on a couple of items. <br> <br>With regards to the V-32 listing on the AMYA website, a...
Rick -<br><br>Check out the Lansing (MI) Sailing Club. They race Victorias in a high school pool. The Victoria is very close in size to a V-32, so you might be...
George Dornis -<br><br>Perhaps this has already been discussed...but...<br><br>Do you have any product registration info that any of the 4000 or so owners have...
Matt,<br><br>Thanks for the URL. I did check it out and we will use something like that for our next pool sailing event. <br><br>Last Sunday morning we did use...
Hi All,<br><br>I just joined your club. I am newly retired & thinking about getting into rc sailing. I really like the looks of the V32 (although I've only...
Hello, JP. Hope you decide to go ahead with R/C sailing, no matter what boat you choose. The V-32 is an excellent first boat, being good-looking, inexpensive,...
The idea of a kit boat with preferred radio placement being faster is ridiculous! Not to mention that if you are a believer in this, the battery will be more...
Hi JP,<br><br>You've already gotten some opinions on several aspects of rc yachting. Whatever you read keep this in mind: ask five skippers anything and you ...
Hey Beach, I'm in West Chester, PA. Email if you want to see a finished kit sail. We have to wait until my pond thaws though. Any day now! The V32k was my ...
Beach, one other thing. When you build the kit, beside moving the batteries, there is another way to build the radio layout. I believe the kit will be very ...
Hello JP<br>My personal preference would be to get an RTS boat. However, that being said, there is an inherant satisfaction one gets when building a boat and...
To Dennis, Baron, Russell, et. al.<br><br>Many thanks for your input regarding kit vs. RTS.<br><br>I admit to a huge case of "analysis paralysis" & know that...
JP, If you want to test sail the V32, let me know. I'm about 10 minutes from Marsh Creek State Park. I'm still not sure if it's frozen yet!If you check my ...
Thanks, I've only seen the boat on-line so I'd love an opportunity to test sail it. I have an old atlas which doesn't show the state park you mentioned but I...
Hi Beachhouse,<br> Nice to see your intrest in a V-32. Just to let you know there's a V-32 on E-Bay. You might be able to pick a RTS boat for the price of a...
Hey Beach, I found Spring Lake. It's a haul but I'd love to go there with you & make a showing for the V32's. FYI Marsh Creek is off Rt 100 N a couple miles...
Todd, I just saw the boat on E-Bay & it is definitely a handsome one. Thanks for letting me know about it. Dennis-I appreciate your offer to let me test sail...
Hey Beach, Traplett Publications has a good one. They will sell direct to you. I'm at work so I'll post the title later if someone else doesn't. They are ...
Beach: Juding by my own experiecne you aren't going to find many current books that specifically are for R/C sailing. A general book on big (as in full sized)...
Thanks, Kent & Dennis for the info on the book & where to buy it. I was beginning to suspect there is little out there after numerous trips to bookstores & ...
Oops. Don't know why a subject didn't show up on my last post. I typed it in twice. BTW, I got in touch with the owner of boat #2670 and got the information I...
Having bought 4 V-32's (3 RTS and one kit)<br>and having bought and built a Victoria, <br>I'd suggest if you REALLY have a building<br>urge to either consider ...
