R/C Tugboat & Barge - Emergency Stop
Electric Tug "Farwell," mated to a scratch-built barge, goes from full-ahead to full-astern in less than a shiplength. "Farwell" is a 24" Dumas Models Shelly Foss kit from the 1970s. The barge is scratch-built. More info on our models and projects at http://www.RapidNadion.com This barge will soon be modified to fire rockets at sea; subscribe to our channel and stay tuned for more video!

How was the boat attached to the barge?

I want to make an RC boat but the lake I would use it at has moss patches everywhere that are hare to avoid. Is there a way that you know of to protect the prop from tangling in the moss?

Good job. That's definetly with in safe speed. I liked how the screws beat the air out of the water. I bet the quick water didn't even reach the barge before she started to go astern.
