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.

Buxton Model Boat Club member Paul Brassington is an avid model submarine enthusiast. Here Paul displays his "Sinking Ship" at the Pavilion Gardens Buxton, causing shock and surprise to many spectators.
With a - `weigh, hey and up she rises !

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…

The Turbine from my Scale machine, flying here in its basic 'Pod and Boom' config. This was filmed and uploaded by a fellow club member..

Take a close, slow look at the detail and craftmanship created by Buxton Model Boat Club member Graham Royle.

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:

"Just for fun" - we aim to share pics/clips from other clubs / activities.
Many thanks to Website "Webmasters" Graham and Rob at both our featured clubs - Links below.

Built by Buxton Model Boat Club member Adrian , he says :- "essentially the paddle boat is scratch built but uses some fittings and materials from a Disar "Vanguard" kit ".
Adrian used drawings of "Flying Scotsman" for inspiration, but is not a faithful reproduction, although "Old Trafford" is also quite similar .
This was the maiden voyage so plenty more work to be done on detail and ballast etc.as the boat still sits a bit low in the water.

Great weather, brilliant bacon butties, carrot cake to die for, oh and of course the boat sailing was brilliant, here’s some photos.

Believed to be from Revell Models , " INGA IV " is a model Ketch , owned and sailed here by Martin Ward of the Hayling Island Model Boat Club.

RCSailing is just for fun, no gain. Other than sharing photos and videos relating to Buxton Model Boat Club activities, from time to time its nice to "showcase" models from other clubs and members as seen here with the link between BMBC & HIMBC - all sharing the common interest in model boats and the "Model Boat Website".

On Saturday 3rd June 2023 the Buxton Model Boat Club supported the Rotary Club Charity Bazaar by holding a model boat display on the Fountain Lake in the Pavilion Gardens Buxton.

Perhaps not a true description with both boats being battery powered ! however - just for fun I thought it would be nice to showcase together, similar boats sailed at my own local model boat club and some of those sailed at the Hayling club - a sort of "Model Club Twinning".
