ALL THE TOY SAILING BOATS
Anyone know who made these glorious boats, particularly through the sixties and seventies. Countless hours with the children watching them sail round and round till the wind would act in their favour and bring them back to shore. Frequently though, had to wade in with my trousers rolled up to rescue them. Of course the crying would stop then.

- RNinMunichFleet AdmiralHi Mactin, there was also a 'Seahawk' in the Star Trek / Wars saga!
Shame about USS Penguin, would have been a tasty boat 😉
BTW: penguins are my favourite animal. so funny, or imperious like the Emperor penguins. 👍
Didn't know about the film either, when I think about sub films Operation Petticoat comes to mind! How about doing a pink one!!!?😲
Keep up the great work, Cheers Doug 😎 - RNinMunichFleet AdmiralPS: USS Enterprise, CVN 65, 'played' the part of USS Seahawk in the CAG TV series! 😎
Light up the night
Our club's 2nd annual "Light up the night" evening sail with lights on. The weather co-operated so it was dry and balmy after the sun went down. Lots of spectators on hand to enjoy the spectacle. Some boats were lit up like Christmas trees but others had the bare minimum navigation lights; at times navigating was a challenge.

- RNinMunichFleet AdmiralBrilliant👍👍👍 and cool cool music 😉
Odd, couldn't download your version but Paul's version worked but a different 'cut' and with classical music! OK but not as cool as yours.
Cheers Doug 😎
DRAGONFLITE 95
Too good to let go. Will it come back. Will it come across danger on the high seas. Will the battery fail.

Ships, Subs, Torpedoes and Hovercraft at my local RC show (4K resolution)
One of my favourite RC shows of the year. The Southern Model Show has a bit of everything. The temporary boating pond is used by about 6 clubs who demonstrate their various watercraft to the appreciation of the visiting public.

BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE
FRANTIC FRIDAY:
Believe me, it was way far easier to drive my wee Abarth. And not have wet pants.

- Bryan-the-pirateMidshipmanI thought you didn't wear pants in a bath or wee for that matterLiked by figtree7nts and RNinMunich
- RNinMunichFleet AdmiralIn a survey conducted in the 70s 98% of respondents admitted they had pee'd in the bath or shower. 2% LIED 😉
Don't know about any survey about wearing pants in the bath, but I suppose it saves turning on the washing machine - very Green 😉Liked by Donnieboy

CG 40564
Built in 2016, she is a 1:14 scale Dumas 40 ft. UTB, which I did my best to keep natural wood wherever possible. Powered by twin 775 size 12 volt Johnson type motors turning Raboesch 50mm 4-blade brass wheels. I properly illuminated her with Lighthouse 9v LEDs and adorned with a BECC USCG Ensign. I overbuilt her like my Father overbuilt his airplanes.

- circle43nauticalChief Petty Officer 2nd ClassThank you for your interest and kind words. She's my pride and joy, and has given me much enjoyment. I believe she's sturdy enough to break 1/2" ice!
