Exercise caution with this sailboat; I sailed two on a lake nearby ... both took on water (i.e. leaked) when heeled over which is what sailboats are supposed to do. The result was one boat sunk with no chance of recovery, and one boat inoperable due to water inside. Use only where you can retrieve easily. RC Sailboat Yacht Remote Controled Boat.

This isn't actually a "sailboat". It simple imitates one. It has two motors and is how it steers. Also, it's not sealed at all so water will pour in and ruin the electronics rendering it useless on your first run. Given the fact that the sails aren't controllable the wind will make it heel "lean to the side" uncontrollably. Due to various design flaws I recommend you do not purchase this boat.
