    A very nice replacement. A buddy had an olde 2002 tiiโ€ฆ with some track type mods to it. But left her pretty much factory in appearance. All I remember is. โ€œ HOLY @$#& โ€œ that thing was weapon on the streets.

    Enjoy your new purchase

    Hi cdnfurball

    The new car is a BMW 5 Series Touring bought to replace my aging and rusting Range Rover.

    The Range Rover broke down on the way to the boating lake a couple of weeks ago, thus curtailing another dayโ€™s model boating. Spending too much time fixing the Range Rover so decided after 10 years of owning it, and 25+ years of Land Rover ownership that it was time for a change.

    The BMW has enough room to transport my model boats and will tow my full sized ones.

    Happy to see that the boat was easy repairable!

    Other most likely had lousy days for model boating. I've see/had sinkings, collisions, drops (especially on concrete), loss of electronics on the water (batteries, connections, RC gear), weed entanglements, as some examples.

    "Not a good day" is a good topic for some more feedback from members, so...

    What was your "Not a good day" experience?

    Getting around to fixing it. Looks like I was lucky as the seat back hit the metal deck crane first, only found it was bent when trying to fix it back to the deck. The crane has distorted but took the brunt of the hit, saving most of the antenna array. Easily persuaded back into shape.
