Am building an experimental airboat that will ideally be steered by differential thrust. Ignore the seat, we won't be sitting there any time soon 😐 but whenever it gets on water I'll post video at www.teledrone.com

Canadian Coast guard 44 Lifeboat
I'm not sure if I posted a little run at Spencer's pool of my 44 lifeboat . Our lifeboats had to have a closed cabin, and therefore ours were not like the American open cockpit style due to our inclement weather or maybe we were smarter than the Americans and kept our crews warm year-round.😀

    As of a few recent Spencers events someone said clockwise pattern. Near the end of the event last weekend a few gents wanted to run faster-electrics so everybody pulled their warships out.

War ship regatta
On the weekend Confederation Marine Modellers held a warship regatta at the Burlington pool at Spencer's.I use my IPhone to video & it's a technique I can't seem to master.

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!
