TV Segment on the Suncoast Scale Model Boat Club (Florida, USA)
A few years back one of the TV stations in the Tampa Bay area sent a professional media crew out to record one of our meets. I got a copy of the finished video (permission granted by the TV station for reproducing). It is quite uplifting and shows you what model boating in Florida looks like.
I hope you enjoy it!

- flaxbybuckCaptainThanks for posting these pictures. Seeing model boats in action like this is great fun - just what it is all about, eh ? 😉Thanks for posting these pictures. Seeing model boats in action like this is great fun - just what it is all about, eh ? 😉
- LewZAdmiralNow that is how you show photos of model boats! Crop the photo or use a zoom/telephoto lens to bring the subject in close leaving a little water around the edge. Thanks for doing that.Now that is how you show photos of model boats! Crop the photo or use a zoom/telephoto lens to bring the subject in close leaving a little water around the edge.

Filming and sailing at the same time is a bit of a challenge so we mount cameras on the models.

Sailing at Madrid (Spain)
As far as I know, there is not a model boat club at Madrid. However, modellers gather Sundays at 10:30 to sail at a pond -actually a set of four connected ponds-, located in a municipal park, in the south of the city. Access is free.
The boat in the video is a sidewheeler, scratch built by my good friend Eduardo Yraola, who is a far more accomplished modeller than I am. She has steam propulsion, and sails at a majestuous pace.

Cash - Graham93Vice AdmiralHi Cash,Hi Cash, The transmitter is home built 27MHz FM based on the design published in RCM&E in the 1970s. All of Paul's subs have a dedicated home made Tx. On one occasion when Paul was sailing/sinking this boat in the park we had a passer by, in running kit, offer to jump in to rescue the boat! He was a bit embarrassed when it resurfaced 😂🤣

Lights on the Mote
It was our club’s ‘lights on the Mote’ evening today. I think the day’s heavy rain kept many folk away but we did get a couple of hours where the weather was fairly clear. I took my Aeronaut Diva along, liberally decorated with cheap string lights that I got at Primark…

- Cpt-PugwashMidshipmanHey Trev..Hey Trev.. There are pilots WAY better than me. I fly Scale, no aerobatics (my machines don't like aerobatics!!). Just like the Violin or juggling, they take perseverance and practice. I have been flying Helis for 40+ yrs now..

Our club made the local news!!
The local Fox TV channel contacted us and told us they'd like to do a short feature on us.
The time allotted was short, but I think we did a nice job representing our hobby.
Hopefully this may create more interest in the local community!
Here are links to the 3 segments they aired:
