This invention concerns a remote control unmanned boat which can be freely
operated by remote control and a remote control device. The remote
control unmanned boat comprises a propelling power source 11 for
generating a propelling power, a steering device 13 for freely varying
the direction of advance, a first transmit-receive antenna 24 for
receiving the signal transmitted by ratio from a control device 20, a
first controller 15 for controlling the propelling power source 11 and
the steering device 13 based on the signal received from the first
transmit-receive antenna 14, a memory device 17 for memorizing the
initial position set in advance, and a GPS antenna 16 for receiving the
electric wave transmitted from an artificial satellite. The first
controller 15 calculates the present position based on the electric wave
received by the GPS antenna 16 and, when the stated condition is
satisfied, initiates automatic control of the propelling power source 11
and the steering device 13 so as to attain regression to the initial
position based on the present position and the initial position. Thus,
the remote control unmanned boat has no possibility of being missed.
