The T37 RC Racing Sloop is a fully sanctioned one design class in the American Model Yachting Association (AMYA). It is an ideal club boat, affordable for everyone, fun and easy to build, and perfect for racing. Each boat has a unique personality reflecting the builder’s preference for paint styles and colors.

From Steven in Denmark: "I just finished building my T27 and wanted to thank you for a great kit. It was a pleasure to build thanks to your thoughtful instructions and the superb materials. The boat is beautiful (even my family says so) and she sails like a dream.
Here is a picture of her sailing on the pond behind our house in Denmark. First time out she got caught on a big branch floating just below the surface. I had to row out and un-snag her and took this picture from the rowboat. - Steven”

The T-27 is 27 inches long, 4 feet high (keel to masthead), and weighs just 2 pounds. The T-27 model boat is controlled via radio control system, just like our other RC boats, where one servo controls both sails simultaneously while the other servo steers the boat with its rudder.

The T-27 Racing Sloop Kit is quick to build (around 20 hours building time) and is a great introduction to using epoxy in boat building. No previous building experience is required!

As a solo sailor or as a member of the T37 community, building a T37 Racing Sloop will bring you a deep sense of accomplishment.

The T37 Kits are highly customizable with various sail colors to choose from and endless options for hull decoration!

The T37 RC Racing Sloop is 37 inches long, 5 feet high, and has a total weight of 4 pounds with the keel ballast casting weighing 2 of these pounds. There are more than 3,000 T37 RC Sailboats sailing today, some in countries as far away as Thailand and New Zealand!

As with all of our model sailboats, the heavy ballast casting at the bottom of the keel makes it impossible to tip the sailboat over. The T-37’s mast can be removed in less than one minute for easy transport!

The customized deck that Carl Miller added to his T65 Radio Controlled Racing Sloop is stunning, to say the least!

At over 65 inches long and 9 feet tall, the T-65 Radio Controlled Racing Sloop is the largest Tippecanoe sailboat! This boat will sail faster than any other model mono-hull sailboat on the lake.

Crafted with a classic planked old growth cedar hull and rigged with the latest in light, high-performance rigging, the T-65 combines beauty and elegance with speed and sailing precision.

More pictures of the T-65 are coming soon!
