Terrific models on display, l enjoyed seeing them..
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a boy and family holidays model yacht ponds were popular especially at sea side resorts. You could buy a boat relatively cheaply and a stick with a cane on the end to fetch it in. It was a fun thing to do.

That sounds like wonderful childhood memories Alan.
DeleteWhen I was a boy we used to live even closer to this pond, and sometimes when I walked by there were some sailing their RC boats there. I was so fascinated that I could hang around for hours to have a look. I'm glad I finally got around to get one of my own.
Thank you for the map, and for reading and commenting of course .
Great models Roger and nice to see your vessel in action
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Maudlin Jack. I was glad to finally find time and an opportunity to take it out. It's was great fun. Unlike our garden railways boats doesn't have season the whole year.
