The M or Marblehead Class, sometimes called the "50/800", is a remote-controlled high performance development class. It's original concept in the 1930's was to produce the largest model that would conveniently fit in the standard American car of the time. The class has been highly developed over the years to produce a high performance model that can be sailed in a wide range of conditions, assuming the owner has the appropriate rigs. Boats are available from several suppliers who can provide them from basic kit form to fully assembled.

The Marblehead (M) class is probably the most exciting to sail with its moderate size and light weight combined with high manoevrability and stability. Essentially a box rule with minimal constraints. A modern M will usually be made almost entirely of carbon fibre - hull, foils, spars and fittings.
The class was the first to adopt hi tech construction in the early 90s and development since then has been limited. This permits almost all boats built since then to be compete well in modern fleets.
The class is quite often referred to as the "Formula One" of radio sailing.
BOATSetc is your source for high performance pre-preg carbon RC sail boats. We can provide hulls, kits through to ready to sail boats.
If the famous design of Marc Pomarede succeeds the already successful Tramontane, this boat beats all records at the moment and is on the top of the list internationally and nationally. Based on paper plans, it was our task to develop the complete production process from digitization to mold production. The aim was to make the boat as cheap as possible, but without sacrificing quality. After making numerous prototypes, we are now able to produce boats in reasonable time.
- moulded in pre-preg carbon
- weight of about 320 grams with openings trimmed
- natural black carbon finish
- centre deck with deck level pot recess & foredeck built in
- fin box and mast tube moulding built in
- foredeck cut outs and hatch opening for access to rc are formed
- witness marks for setting out positions of fittings
- hulls are left with the surface as moulded
- bow bulkhead is low density epoxy filler
- stern is already closed
The Nioutram is available as a kit from about 1.490€ (incl Tax plus shipping)

Quark is the current design of our technology partner SAILSetc. Suitable for use with swing rigs or traditional rigs, QUARK is capable of performing well across the wind speed range. Characteristic of SAILSetc designed boats is their ability to perform for sailors of all skill ranges and in a wide range of conditions. Not only can they give excellent results for some of the best sailors (there were three QUARKs in the top 6 places at the 2014 world championship) but they can also give better results for sailors lower down the finishing results. This is partly due to their reliability imparted by the build quality and partly due to the handling qualities imparted by their fundamental and detail design.
- recesses for the snap in/out rigging screw system
The Quark is available as a kit from about 1.950€ (incl Tax plus shipping)

What about getting into short course RC sailing, using only a short length of the loch. Saves a bit in shoe leather. I am at the moment refurbishing a Marblehead (circa mid 80's) - a 'Challenger' designed by the late Tony Able. Only have one rig for it, No1, but hope to have fun with it after the IOM racing at Brechin.
