Went down to a local park on Lake Washington today and watched some of the R/C Hydroplane racing action. These things are a hoot. They are very fast and it's impressive how well the guys control them. Sometimes it's hard to tell that they're only 3' long.

Good shots of them. Tough buggers to keep focus on. I did some a few years ago.

Thanks. Yes, they are quick and hard to keep focus on. I ended up with a ton of great shots, except they aren't even close to being in focus :)

Hoping to get some of the big boys coming up soon

Great shots, Really clear for probably how quick they were moving. I like the clearity and the color of the water also.
