On the 20th of October, the Spencer pool will be drained for the winter skating season. I think it's a bit early, but no one listens to me.A couple of us set sail till next spring.The Gumbot Clogaroo ran real nice.

Light up the Night on the September 25th 2025 including safety cautions
Our club will be sailing at Spencer's in the evening with our model boats lit up. I have upgraded my Jimwilder Tug with an LED light from our Dollar Store ( $ 4.50 ) now. Did a few modifications to get it in the tug.Looks pretty good & should be visible.

    Hi Jumpugly, thank you so much for your wonderful comment.

    I have to confess something: I was worried and sad because your opinion hadn't been posted yet.

Club Event
I'm a little late posting this photo but on Aug.21 the Confederation Marine Modelers had a event at 9AM at Spencer's pool for working boats so my Fireboat Edward M. Cotter had a sail for the first time in 2025 It's the red Fire boat. Just thought I'd add a real photo of the Buffalo N.Y. fireboat that visits Port Colborne, Ontario Every Aug. first weekend. There was more working boats but to take a photo with a I Phone 8 and sail a model is kind of difficult.

    Thanks for sharing this story and I see they haven’t changed at Spencer’s. There are no policies on shipping lanes or the direction of travel.

    This was the Festival of Lights last year.

    Looks to me like one of the nicest ponds for model boating. Visibility like a swimming pool. Would make it great to spot a sunken vessel. Likely a good training ground for novice submariners!

    Hi Alexandre

    The open day pictured was at the Southport club’s lake just off of Rotton Row in Southport, Lancashire, UK.

    Despite arriving late (as always) it was nice to bump into so many old friends that had come to visit the Southport club’s “bring and buy” event yesterday.

    I hope you all got home safely and it was really nice to chat with you all.

    Bob.
