City of Madison, Indiana

Unlimited Bio:
The city of Madison, IN. became an owner of a hydroplane in 1961 when industrialist, Samuel DuPont donated his hydroplane named "Nitrogen" to the city of Madison. When that boat was destroyed in a racing accident a year later, DuPont sold his second boat to the city for $5,000. Madison, IN has been in the hydroplane racing business ever since. The world's only community owned hydroplane is administered by a board of directors appointed by the city's mayor. Miss Madison is the oldest name in the sport, having competed in 41 consecutive seasons, more than even Bernie Little's Miss Budweiser. The current boat, which has three victories (1993, 2001, 2005), was built in 1988 and is the 6th Madison, IN. hydroplane. Madison, Indianathe most beautiful small town in the Midwest. Surrounded by breath-taking natural beauty, Madison is known for its historic architecture as well as its long tradition as a thriving commercial and industrial center. Visit Madison located on the Ohio River a short drive from Cincinnati, Louisville or Indianapolis. Madison offers a perfect getaway spot for a weekend, a lifetime or their boat race held every July.

Scale Bio:
This boat was purchased over the 2010/1011 Winter from RC boat company. It arrived as a bare hull and was worked on over the winter to make it look like the Oh Boy Oberto and prepare it for racing. It is one of the first two electric boats to run in the club. The idea is to have a viable and equal setup to the Nitro race boats but using electric power.
