Overview
The Pro Boat Horizon Harbor Tug Boat is a scale-appearing boat allowing you to kick back and be the captain of your own ship or create the ultimate retrieval boat. It's both a beautiful scale tug boat to cruise around your local pond and a ready-to-go-out-of-the-box retrieval boat for the seasoned racer. Featuring a 700 size motor and a 40 amp ESC capable of handling up to 3s LiPo, this boat can be enjoyed as a scale tug or you can use the removable arms to turn the tug into a working boat mover and retriever for up to 48-inch racing boats. Additionally, it has plumbing for dual water cannons which will become operational by adding a water pump which will be powered by the receiver. LED lights, a metal gear servo, 3 Channel 2.4Ghz radio, and receiver round out the package providing nighttime piloting with precise steering and crystal clear connection between the driver and the boat.

Product Details
The Pro Boat Horizon Harbor Tug Boat is a scale-appearing boat allowing you to kick back and be the captain of your own ship or create the ultimate retrieval boat.
Key Features
- Durable, Molded Hull
- Removable Retrieval Arms
- Operating Water Canon Ready
- Boat Stand
- Scale LED Lighting
Durable, Molded Hull
One piece construction provides great strength. Molded composite material is much more impact resistant than fiberglass.
Removable Retrieval Arms
Turn the boat from a scale tug to a usable retrieval boat. Easy snap in installation with the ability to retrieve up to a 48-inch boat.
2.4Ghz Transmitter
3 Channel FHSS 2.4 technology ensure crystal clear, interference free connection between the driver and boat.
Boat Stand
The sturdy wood construction works as a display or work stand. Foam protects the boat's finish and it can easily be stained to match any décor.
Scale Detail
Scale detail provides as much realism as possible. Tires, winch, crane, among other scale accessories on the deck finish out the details.
Operating Pump
Working water cannons plumbed and ready to accept a water pump add the ultimate realism to this boat. Operates on a third channel with its own controller. This allows you to turn on and off the water cannons with a push of a button.
700 Size Oversized Motor
Powerful brushed motor provides more than enough torque to move large 48-inch gas powered boats. The large cooling heatsink provides plenty of cooling during those long pushes.
Pre-Installed Ballast
This ballast allows you to take the boat out of the box and place it in the water, without having to add a lot of weight to get it a proper waterline.
High Torque Servo
High torque servo provides all the necessary power to steer a 48-inch boat back to shore. Metal gears keep the gears from stripping as easy as nylon gears do. Waterproofing makes sure the servo is up to the task of being in a boat without the risk of failure do to getting wet.
Scale LED Lighting
Provides navigation lights to help guide you on your rescue operations. Mast lighting provides that scale look and are easily seen from far away.

This is quite the boat! 30 inches long is bigger than one might think, the speed looks quite scale but when you need full throttle will give you enough to make a decent wake. It turns on a dime however the reverse is a little lack luster. It’s more of a brake than a reverse. The quality is nice all parts were intact and every magnet was glued down for the hatches contrary to some youtube video reviews. I ran a 3C 5000mah battery and had about 20-25 minutes of run time, took the boat home and still had half the battery left. So if run at a scale speed you could get at least an hour. For sure high price point but for a solid watertight boat I think it was a good deal!

Excellent for the price. This boat is very well made and has working lights. The scale detail is also impressive. Definitely worth the price.

The boat works great, super fun unfortunately the channel 3 does not work. It's just this little part... the company will not respond back. I'd hate to have to return this whole boat over a little teeny part The size of my thumb makes no sense to me. wish they had better support ...no phone number to call, just some email they never answer

I laughed at my 80 year old husband when he bought this since he could barely get down to the dock, much less get the boat into the water. His brother helped him the ONLY time it got in the water. OK, YES it was fun to watch. This is an expensive big boy toy but he liked it. Yes, it was worth it for him.

Proboat makes models that work well, but they are inconsistent on good visual style.This model is rather cheap looking and hasn't the attention to style that, say, an Aquacraft model would have. But Aquacraft's tugboat is no more...so here we are. For many years I use [that] tug to go get other models, but the arms of this proboat tug are just what high-spending r/c boat hobbyists need.And under the hood, proboat shines brighter.Still, for 450 dollars they failed to deliver the good looks. (Not 450 dollars worth.) OTOH, in their Vietnam PBR reproduction they absolutely nailed realistic scale modeling. Inconsistent.I know many people are happy enough with having a great way of getting their expensive turtled speed boat back, but for people who lean towards scale and realism instead of high speed, this venerable workboat we all almost instinctively know "just screams" of second world manufacturing.What you see is what you get. Don't be afraid that this is somehow a lemon; it is not.One last thing! Do NOT buy the battery the owner's manual tells you too, *until you verify that your boat does have that kind of connector.* Mine did not and I lost 3-cell lipo money getting mine a unique power source that the proboat ESC in this tug can work with. My boat must predate the latest edition of the owner's manual because mine hasn't the connector it calls for. That connector is a brand new invention to me.Why does the industry keep making new connectors?! Proboat has done just that, here.They don't work any better. It might be a way of getting people to buy specialized batteries. 'My boat needs a new kind of battery connector that I never have heard of, so I will have to go to the hobby companies that sell new converters. Hello, ebay.'
