Dragonforce 65s racing at Eaton Boating lake - Norwich Model Yacht Club - my first race! 👍
Fairmile D - MGB623 and MTB741
Both Fairmile D boats 1/24 scale and are scratch built. They have both been about 6 years in operation.
MGB623 is an MGB, flying the Norwegian flag and belongs to a good friend.
Mine is MTB741. it is powered by 2 Graupner Speed 700 12V motors with NiMH batteries. The 6 pdrs and 20mm guns can rotate. it has a balsa planked hull and fibreglass skin. Decks and superstructure are also balsa. Guns are from tinplate and brass.

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 😎
