not trying to hijack the thread, but I was looking at the BBY link JFruge has and the hobby store has some RC Hydros and the one they have at the top of the page was a model of the a hydro a local radio station when I lived in the Seattle area. It was known as the Miss Rock, Hydro racing is a very popular event during Seafair. The Miss Rock made news if it finished a race...it always seemed it would run into problems and would be laying dead in the water...the Miss Bud usually won every year.....man that brought back memories
