I got this for my son and it worked 2 times then the engine burnt out. Even in the calmest waters it takes on water that needs to be constantly drained. Expect less than 5 minutes of run time before the batteries die and need recharging.... INSTANT LANDFILL. Cool looking boat if you want to keep it out of the water. The water tower broke off quickly as well. Cheaply made....

I bought this for my husband for his 71st birthday. We live on a small lake and he has had a thing for tugboats all his life. We enjoy running it and have a great time. The only thing is it would be nice to have a longer battery charge. 20 minutes is not long enough for us. We love this tug. You never lose the kid in you. Thanks for the fun.

Don't buy this tug boat!! I recieved this to give to my son for his birthday and it left him in tears. He put it in the water the first 30 mins after having it and the motor would NOT turn off by the switch or the boat when he pulled it out of the water. There for we had to open it up to un-hook the battery so the motor would not blow up. My son was so anticipation to get this, but was let down and left him upset. I read the reviews and it all says it, that the motor will not turn off. Reluctantly I took a chance, but regretful now. I strongly advice it NOT TO BUY this product!! Mom and dad's nightmare as a gift.
