Getting Started

Boats

I qualify this section with the comments that I am not familiar with all of the boats shown below, but I am most certainly familiar with the suppliers and can recommend them with the highest confidence as my own experience with them has not only been faultless, but in this day and age when even major names are getting bad reviews, these folks provide service that is of absolutely the highest standard, as have all the other suppliers mentioned on the "Links" page of this site.

I make no apologies for what may seem like gushing good comments. These folks have earned them, just as one supplier mentioned to me that they were proud to be mentioned on the links page of this site, because 'they had earned that position'. And I must confess that I got a buzz out of that as well.

But now to the boats and suppliers. Listed in alphabetical order.

Float-a-Boat specialise in plans, scale boats and their fittings, and sailboats as well as all other forms of watercraft including electric power boats.

I recently requested Float-a-Boat to provide me with a list of boats that they could supply that would be suitable to newcomers to this sport. They supplied me with the following list. This was a hurried request and as I have time I will provide additional specifications, but in the meantime, those of you who are busting to get one of these boats can click on the above image to link to Float-a-Boat where contact details can be found. Rhonda and Adrian are both patient folks who really do support this sport and I cannot speak too highly of their standard of service.
 

Please note: Specifications including colours may be subject to change and be different to what may be represented on these pages.
To get current pricing and supply details of the above boats, please call Rhonda or Adrian at Float-a-Boat.
 

Specialists in State/National/International classes but provide fittings for all the competitive classes and then some

Radio Yacht Supplies Australia run a very efficient operation that can provide the materials you might need for almost any recognised class of competition class sailboat including the Micro Magic. Shirley and Malcolm provide a service that is of the highest standard. In recent times they have become the absolute one-stop shop for the radio yachter of the recognised competition classes. And even if you want to do something different.

Shirley and Malcolm can also supply the Micro Magic in whatever form you like. Ready built or kit form, straight build or racing version, they can supply what you need. And they also host the official Australian Micro Magic forum site.

The above suppliers are fully endorsed by me. Over the years they have provided me with service that I have always considered to be of the highest standard. And the importance of that is that anyone new to the sport will not get a run-around or bad advice or any other information that might be detrimental to their interest in the sport in order to make a profit. - Don Leitis 11 November 2009
