MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN.

2 more event dates.

Sunday, 20th July 2025. Rudyard Lake Sailing Club. Open day for radio controlled model boats. As per last year, the terms of RLSC’s lease of the water specifically exclude ’planing boats’ so for our purposes that excludes fast electrics.

This is an informal event so anyone wishing to take part can arrive and leave when they please but 10am might be a good earliest time and the ‘Mini Beans Cafe’ closes at 4pm. Adequate car parking on site.

Note that boats are launched from a pontoon so you need to wear a buoyancy aid. This event ran for the first time last year and it was possible to borrow a buoyancy aid on the day if you didn’t have your own. The invitation is being sent to several local model boat clubs in addition to ourselves but it is a lovely venue with a nice cafe and a very friendly atmosphere.

Saturday, October 4th 2025. Evening sail at Stoke Boat Club, Endon.

The event will follow previous formats and includes a pie and peas supper which we have to pay for but it is normally not expensive and very welcome on the night. We have to confirm numbers for catering purposes the week before so end of September.
