Radio-controlled boats are model boats controlled remotely with radio control equipment. The main types of RC boat are: Scale models (12"(30 cm) - 144"(365 cm) in size), the sailing boat and the power boat.

Sport boats
Sailboats
Sailboats use the power of the wind acting on sails to propel the boat. Model sailboats are typically controlled via a multi-channel radio transmitter in the hands of the operator with a corresponding receiver in the boat.
Racing sailboats

There are four international classes of radio sailing boats recognized by the ISAF-Radio Sailing Division: (from smallest to largest).

International One Metre (IOM)
International Marblehead (M)
International Ten Rater (10R)
International A Class (A), the largest of the international radio sailing classes.

Power boats
Power boats are typically electric or internal combustion, (ignition engine or glow plug R/C engine based) and some are steam powered (conventional type, and also flash steam). (At one time some boats used engines working on the compression ignition principle.

 power boats have two controls, rudder, outboard motor or stern drive and throttle control.

Powered scale boats will often have additional remote controlled functions to improve realism, e.g. sounding fog horns, rotating radar antennae etc. Some of the more sophisticated powered racing boats may also have additional remote controlled functions.  There are three main types of power boat. RTR(ready-to-run), ARTR(almost-ready-to-run), and kit versions are available. All thoroughbred racing boats are made from kits and the builders add their own gear and radio.
