The WaterBoard is a fine product, let there be no doubt — it is cleverly engineered for both rigidity and aesthetics, and the kit is quite flawless in terms of laser-cutting and hardware.... Down on the waters, it handles like a champ... it has enough top speed to keep you on your toes at all times. Drifting is as fun as it gets... a pleasant distraction from the routine sightings at the local R/C club.

I just want to let you all know how pleased I am with the quality of your kit. I was looking for a unique boat, and voila! I found the Pond Flyer (quite by accident). I have to say, your company is at least two steps ahead of other kit companies. The wood and laser cuts are excellent and most importantly, the instructions are in a class of their own...no guessing, plenty of hints and real illustrations! I am having a blast building my boat, and am looking forward to buying your "Lazy Bee" equivalent in the near future.

I'm just finishing up my water board. I'll never build another kit that's not laser cut. The quality of the kit and instructions is excellent.

Thank you very much
