History of boating
If Professor Pat can do it...so can I...lol.. The history of boating spans millennia, evolving from dugout canoes and rafts in prehistory to sophisticated vessels powered by steam and advanced engines. Early boats, appearing around 10,000 years ago, were used for fishing and coastal travel, with Egyptians developing reed and wooden boats for transport and trade by 4000 BCE. Over centuries, innovations like the Viking longboat, the Chinese junk with its rudder, and the Dutch yacht transformed seafaring, eventually leading to the Age of Exploration and the flourishing of yachting as a recreational pursuit in the 17th century. Modern boating integrates electronic systems, computer-aided design, and emerging eco-friendly propulsion, reflecting its continuous adaptation.

SSMBC update: Dock upgraded
For over 60 years the "model boat" pond at Lake Seminole Park (Seminole, Florida) has been a popular place for R/C model boats. I know that is only a short time compared to our Euro friends, but keep in mind that Florida was not a well populated state 150 years ago.
Today, I was at our meet (not many ther, too hot) and I found Pinellas County Parks had moved the dock about 3 feet further away from the shore. They also added two safety rails on the corners of the floating dock (about 8' X 35') at my request. I must say they have been very responsive to my requests.
From my view I feel that this is one of the best natural facilities in the state, perhaps in the US for model boating.

- LewZAdmiralThanks Philuk. Me getting back to model boating is gwtting closer. I promised myself no model rc boats and rc tanks until my home is restored. Each day I get things done is a step closer to being active. This has taken a toll on us and is taking longer than anticipated. But, as we approach the end of this terribly hot summer that might be the turning point.
Lew - GARTHCommodoreYour very lucky because up here in Hamilton Ontario Canada we have lots of city parks that have ponds for run off water but the city blocks them off post signs not for public use and warn about ticks in area becuse the weeds arn't cut down and there's no way to launch a model boat . So happy sailing P/S I never learned to spell properly sorry.Liked by Ronald

Especially at the stern - seems to be intended for only one shaft whereas the original had two.
Stabilisers were also fitted to the hull.
The embryonic superstructure looks about right though.
Deans still do a kit, but it ain't cheap🤑🤑
Cheers, Doug😎
