Count me in.
 Even though I'm in South Wales so have as far to travel as any other Mayhemer.
 I'm still kicking myself for missing the inaugural weekend.

Gosh, does it actually rain in Wales? I thought they just had this big reservoir in the sky which they empty on you at regular intervals.

Right an update havign spoken to the relevant authorities they have said no problem Whit the event being run at the country park,they are keen to have us there.local clubs have Been contacted and I am waiting for them to reply etc. Campsites and B+B will shortly be given Robert Davies is goign to sort that out for me so bear with us on this one as it is early days!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right there will be some simple rules to be observed but nothing heavy as it is a FUN FUN FUN AND EVEN MORE FUN WEEKEND,well it has got to be with me in charge yes I will be the one causing MAYHEM that weekend.

Rules
1 Ins MUST BE  shown to the organisers
2 No IC on the lake at all as it is  SSI
3 Frequency controll will be adhered to
4 If I say NO to anything well NO is NO(unless of course cash is involved then It might be yes ;))

And that is it on rules unless I think of anything else of course

The weekend as far as I acn see will be a FUN one with me PREFERABLY not having a nervous breakdown.
Steering course in the shallowest of the 2 lagoons and tug towing
Springer races and football
Free sailing in the furthest lagoon
Free sailing in the main lake

An evening sail organised by Ghost on the otherside of the lake in the lagoons(contact him not me,his idea,he volunteered)

There is plenty to do for the wife's,girlfriend etc within 10 miles of LLanberis either shopping in Caernarfon or Bangor and LLandudno is only 20 miles away. So come on lets have some fun in Norht Wales,alas the only thing I cant arrange is the weather but who can.

insurance.
stav will you want my laminated full A4 sized cover note from NAME, (the insurers who PMBC deal with) or will club membership card do as it states:

Quote
The member / family named overleaf is a fully paid up member/family of the PMBC and is covered by Third Party Liability Insurance and is permitted to operate radio-controlled model boats of a type allowed at approved waters to current rules in force.
.


as for covering all eventualities stavros, i think you may need to hire a submarine and deep sea diving unit to retrieve the red pelican! :P :laugh:

You don't think you can come and not sail ?  We will lend you one for the day.

( or maybe two - motor and sail )

OK North Wales it is then, so it will be a straight running demo from one side of the lake to the other (if you see a boat without an arial please send it back to the other side of the lake) Looking forward to it Stavros.
