Radio Controlled (RC) Model Sailing
Sail RC
RC stands for "radio controlled" or sometimes "remote controlled". Our products are all RC sailboats. Here at Sail RC we offer the finest products to go RC sailing. So however you call it, you will have a great time with our RC model sailboats whether on land, sea or ice.
Welcome to RC Sailing -
We are a different kind of company. We carefully select every boat we sell based on performance and endurance. We know what is good because we actually race these boats - learning on the toughest proving waters available. That means we speak sailing too. So whether you are a newcomer or an old salt, we will be glad to guide you to the right boat, and service you long after you have made your purchase.
We strive to be the source of information that you can rely on with each boat. And we are personally responsible to each owner with prompt answers via email or phone. If you have a problem, we are there with troubleshooting, and parts ~ if you need to learn, we are there with seminars, mentoring, and tech sheets. We write a lot, putting down specific how-tos on items very specific to the boat you own. Bottom line, we want you to have as much fun at this sport as we do.
Currently we handle four different RC sailboat classes, which are, without question, the best in their class.
RC Laser (42")
Proud boat parents with their RC Laser
The RC Laser is the most popular one-design model boat sailing in the world today, with over 8000 in North America alone. The reason is simple - the RC Laser is the best value in RC sailing! It comes ready to sail, performs in a wide range of winds, includes complete electronics, and is almost indestructible (only "poly hull" model sailboat in the world). At 42" long, it is a big model, but packs in a carry case in just two minutes for easy transportation and storage. The RC Laser is exceptionally well engineered, and is supported by us with full parts and service stateside. It is simply the very best RC sailboat in the world today. It is simply the best ready-to-sail sailboat from only $399 (with carry case). Learn more
Seawind (39")
The Seawind is a re-discovered class. Around for many years, it is now supported by a fine class organization and this class is growing rapidly. We sell this boat either as a kit, for those that enjoy building, or Ready-to-Sail. A beautiful boat which is just as appealing on display as out on the water. Designed to look like the Americas Cup boats in the 1990's this boat has the look of power and speed. A wonderful addition to our one-design offerings. Kit from $254, RTS from $499. Learn More
Nirvana (32")
This boat looks like the cruiser/racer we are so fond of in the crewed boat world.

Nirvana - We knew a good thing when we saw this classy boat. We liked the size, the fact that it comes completely built, and its impressive features. We liked even better that it far out performed other boats in this price range. Even though produced by a major hobby company, the Nirvana was designed, tested, and production engineered by the same man that developed the RC Laser, a world class model sailor. This is a great entry level boat. Not offered as a kit, it is ready-to-sail with all electronics included at around $200.

L toR, SS1, SS2, SS3. The tried and proven production land sailers,
one for each of the three "box" classes of land sailing.

You won't believe our line of Stealth S-Series "hard surface" RC sailboats. These radical speed merchants sail on any parking lot or other hard surface, and are soooooo exciting. We now offer three sizes, based on the three racing classes of model land yachts. And, yes, take off the wheels and put on ice runners and they scream across the ice! Again, great value, terrific performance, and rough and tough construction. These "One Niter" kits start under $200.
