Just for fun thought I would revisit a " fan assisted " Wee Nip . Looking again at issues such as noise, focus, changes in light and the suitability for various camera platforms for close encounters!.
Tested here at our local lake with the Buxton Model Boat Club.

December 1st 2022 . - Getting colder now with heavy mist early in the mornings. A good day to try another set of slightly bigger high aspect sails.
Still very light wind but just managing to get from A to B.

Cool, calm early late November morning. Very light wind expected to increase slightly but perfect for my "Slim Nip" which is a modified Wee Nip. Just pop in the extended mast with high aspect sail - and enjoy :-

Having frequently sailed up the Chesapeake Bay to Baltimore many years ago, this little beauty holds many memories.
The skipjack is a traditional fishing boat used on the Chesapeake Bay for oyster dredging.
This model was filmed on my recent visit to Portsmouth, it was great to meet with its owner Peter, who is a member of the Hayling Island Model Boat Club.

The "Venetian Night Sailing" which was held on 30th of October 2022 was great fun and proved very popular amongst members and the local community.
Very sorry our local member Graham93 couldn`t be with us due to unforeseen circumstances !.
Graham, look forward to seeing you back soon with "Bill & Ben" and maybe "Kayak Kev" !!!.

Just a fun project to use up some old radio gear , single for steering only, or two channel if you want to include a sail winch.
Great for when the pond is full of weed - Also if no wind , stick a motor on the front or back !.
Just have fun !

Using the camera boats, we have a montage of clips here which help to appreciate the many variables between cameras and conditions around the lake at different times of the year.

That little gem took us allover 🇳🇿 I would just have problems getting down in one now!.
Ok on the power pod on the LY - just tried for fun (as you do ) actually it works quite well on the front also , just more to fiddle with !. Its more fun & more of a challenge to keep it on three wheels in the right direction without power!!!.
I love to see what you guys and people like jbkiwi are doing down under and in all the other "Heineken " places that the forum reaches !..
By the way I am really enjoying sailing my "Slim Nip" with the high aspect sails especially in the light winds,
Cheers👍⛵
