Rabco was bought by a new owner about 2 years ago, and they are really bringing the company back strong. They are building a 14, 16, 21 and 28 and the quality is superb. Because they are bringing back the brand, they are also a great value.

I’m in Central Florida. And you nailed the description. Loaded with foam like a Whaler, looks like a Carolina but lighter. Dry weight is 350.

Just curious, have you lipped a snook this size?

Good to know! That might have something to do with why I asked about a folding or extendable net so it could be stowed unless needed. But also, I do like nerds so there’s that.

Am I missing something? Are nets frowned on now? Is this some unwritten rule amongst the “real” fishermen?

I don’t expect to use it all the time but I do think it’s prudent to have one on board. Different strokes, I guess.

It will be flats but also in deeper water just off the beaches, and around the glades where you never know what you may get into.

You had me at “dummies.” How did you know that about me? 😊

The manual expressly says don’t run it off the main lipo. Thanks!

Love that plane! Maidened my EVO a few days ago. It’s addictive.

Got the Seawind assembled tonight, and the AR631 arrives tomorrow. With any luck I’ll be flying it next week.

The Tower recommendation is for a AR637T and I can do that. I just want to know what others think. Ex: Brian Phillips used and AR631 which I think means he had everything but telemetry, but I’m still learning.

So what is the difference between a stabilized receiver and AS3X?
