"Venetian Evening Sailing"
Held this year on 30th of October 2022, the "Venetian Night Sailing" is an annual event which is always popular amongst Buxton Model Boat Club 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" !!!.

Land Yacht Project
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 !

Managed to capture some video of Brian Clewes' live steam TID tug on the lake this Wednesday 19 October. First chance for a proper sail and a bit more ballast needed.

Using the camera boats
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.

Source for 3/32 reed accent strips
Hello everyone! I hope good things are in store for you all, a new boat, a new love, something grand.
I have a question:
Does anyone have a source for very thin, 3/32 or thereabouts strips which in the Sterling CTLL kit were identified as "reed" strips, 3/32. They are perfect for edges and accents and they can take a bend without being steamed. If anyone knows a place that has this type of material I would really appreciate any info you can provide.
Thanks!😎🤗😇👍

- GaryLCCommodoreHello, and good morning. I would suggest you give Cornwall ModelBoats a good coat of looking at. As besides the flexible beech strip they sell which is very flexible, and a short length can be bent around into a circle without any problem. So if you bought three strips, one at the thickness you require, and two more to go on the inside and outside, to make up a channel type capping. they also sell numerous hardwood mouldings shaped, into channels, right-angles, mouldings for hardwood window frames. ect. ect. Give it a looking at and I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Regards, Gary.Liked by Peejay and stevedownunder and

Camera Boat trials with Bill & Ben.
Getting more experience with new camera boat seeing how the gopro handles the varying light changes. Filming at different locations, while circumnavigating the lake.
Live streaming via the phone, changes to exposure etc. were applied in the final edit.
Again , thanks to Bill & Ben - and of course Graham !.
