Great minds think alike. I bought one on a clearance sale at Radio Shack. It's battery powered (I didn't want a gas powered one - though it might not be great for the fish). Unfortunately RS gave me the wrong battery charger so I can't charge the batteries.
I also tried a battery powered airplane - that didn't go so well - lets just say if I'm ever with you on a plane and both the pilot and co-pilot eat the tainted fish - keep me away from the controls, far, far, away.
If I was to purchase another one though I would get this one. It is a well recommend battery powered RC boat, has proportional steering and throttle and comes complete. Check out the video of it in action.
