RC boat - where to use?

[bobski1]

Never had an RC boat before but got donated one from a friend, quite keen to take the small one out to go try it but not sure where it's allowed or a way to check?

IC or electric? Lots of ponds ban IC now, but lots of electric clubs about.

No boating lake nearby? Wear shorts, it will inevitably conk out in the middle and taking your trousers off to retrieve the thing may scandalise passers-by.
